The Grow Jamaica movie was inspired by a book with a similar title written by Leeroy Campbell and Janice Campbell. The front cover of the text sums up the authors' perspective on cannabis with four words, food, fuel, fiber and medicine encapsulating the plant's many uses. As with the book, the film extols the many benefits of a plant widely known as marijuana and proposes its formal and legal acceptance in Jamaican society.
The clout behind the film itself is reinforced by the caliber of its cast. It comprises the ideal mix of talent and fame. Some of the famous faces that appear in the film include Oliver Samuels, one of Jamaica's most celebrated actors, Stephen Marley, Reggae artist and son of the world famous Robert Nesta (or Bob) Marley and co author of the inspirational text Leeroy Campbell.
The film is a part of a wider campaign to accumulate widespread support for and acceptance of this plant, which also goes by the name cannabis, for its many benefits. The ideas supported in the film are rooted in numerous scientific studies. The other arms of the campaign include the book and the website created to provide the wider public with information about the goodness of marijuana.
The use of Marijuana, which is known as cannabis and for the local Jamaican population, herb, is not legal on the island. This is typically a shocking revelation for many outsiders who have come to associate the island with smoking the controversial plant. There is a group of advocates however, who are encouraging the island's legislators to decriminalize its use.
The structure of the film reflects the diversity of the plant itself. It is basically a documentary designed to inform enlighten and entertain at the same time. It consist of a number of interviews, some executed on the streets of Jamaica to give an idea of how the layman views the plant. Others are conducted in offices and in residential communities with middle to upper class interviewees who represent expert opinions on the subject of decriminalization.
It is a one hour film which makes it fairly easy to watch. Additionally, it may be accessed on DVD. The DVD version is great for those who want to be able to view the documentary at their own convenience. Educators and marijuana promoters may also use it for its educational content.
The entertaining and informative documentary is designed to change the island's, and by extension the world's view of marijuana. This is the dream envisioned by Dr. Campbell as the revolution. This change of legal and social stance on the plant is expected to result in its widespread and uninhibited use by Jamaicans of all classes.
The potential of the Grow Jamaica movie to change the way the world views marijuana cannot be denied. Those who view it with an open mind are bound to emerge with an inspired and refreshed views on the controversial herb. It is truly foremost among the most effective elements of the pro marijuana campaign.
