A coming of age story. The year is 1966 and young Max Gold is off to freshman year of college, but before it starts, Max and buddy Rodger have a blow out weekend in Austin. It is in Austin his older cousin turn the two on to cannabis, the event would shape Max's life for the next eighteen years, and beyond. Those eighteen years were also the coming of age story of a USA going through it's own maturing growth. Protestors come out in mass to protest a war in Viet Nam, A demand for women rights, and for minority rights which were long over due. Protestors were out to demand the US to ban the bomb. Music was going through changes as well with big music secenes on the west coast like from Haight Ashbury and Woodstock on the east coast.. Two more assassinations of our countries leaders happened. Tech wise we put our man on the moon. If you take the TV Weeds move it back to the 60's and crossed that story with a Ken Burns reality program of the times you get A Marijuana Man. This is a trip back to the days when gas was cheap, love free, and rock-n-roll was quite young.
