Summary |
Opium is a commodity that has tremendous power - both to ease pain and to destroy lives. For centuries, this flower has played, and continues to play, a pivotal role, not just in the lives of people who grow, manufacture and use it, but also in the increasingly tense sphere of international relations. This program follows a journey around the world, where conflicting forces do battle over this narcotic sap. (From Canada, in English, Russian and Mishmi, English subtitles) (Documentary) MA CC |
