Psychedelia takes viewers on a journey through the origins and resurgence of psychedelic research, exploring the profound, life-altering effects of these compounds in both the therapeutic setting and the world at large.

“My two favorite movies that are educational are ‘Fantastic Fungi’ and ‘Psychedelia.’ There was footage I've never seen and it educated me on some things I did not know.” - Paul Stamets, Mycologist and Author

“I’ve seen many films on the 1960s and the psychedelic renaissance, but I have to say this is one of the best.” - Dennis McKenna, Ethnopharmacologist and brother of Terence McKenna
