The film follows Adrianne as she turns to psychedelic medicine to overcome her depression, anxiety and addiction.

The Film: Dosed

Run time: 83 Minutes

After many years of prescription medications failed her, a suicidal woman turns to underground healers to try and overcome her depression, anxiety, and opioid addiction with illegal psychedelic medicine like magic mushrooms and iboga.

Adrianne’s first dose of psilocybin mushrooms catapulted her into an unexpected world of healing where plant medicines are redefining our understanding of mental health and addiction.

“Inspiring, raw… It will open your eyes, and your heart.” (Mark Achbar, director of The Corporation)
