About the Event
Can a pill save the world? The story of Orange Sunshine.
Join the OpenMind Initiative for a special screening of The Sunshine Makers. This gripping documentary reveals the stranger-than-fiction true story of Tim Scully and Nick Sand, the underground chemists who mass-produced the legendary "Orange Sunshine" LSD in the 1960s.
Driven by a messianic mission to transform global consciousness, they built one of the largest underground laboratories in history right under the nose of the authorities. Equal parts cat-and-mouse thriller and historical deep-dive, The Sunshine Makers offers a unique lens into the idealism, the chemistry, and the complex legacy of the psychedelic counterculture.
