ABOUT THE FILM

Arcata is a progressive college town in Humboldt County, northern California, in the heartland of American marijuana country. Marijuana growing has long been accepted in the region, but the residents of Arcata have come to realize that its biggest unregulated industry has some unexpected consequences. In the wake of the 200,000+ signatures collected for the SensibleBC campaign, and legalization of marijuana in Colorado and Washington, Tricky Bidness takes a timely, hometown look at the complexities of marijuana, culturally, legally and personally from the people who have lived with it in their community for over 40 years.
