Shrooms (2023)

Experimental documentary; '18 The film’s starting point is a scientific study in which the psilocybin (a chemical) of magic mushrooms is used for the therapeutic treatment of depression. Using the premise of this study, we follow Dan, a young Venezuelan man currently living in Lisbon, who collects magic mushrooms in the forest and distributes them in the city to those in need - like a New Age Robin Hood - using pigeons as carriers.
