Jody Belsher is the filmmaker of the documentary titled “The Other Side of Cannabis”. It is both educational and personal. Belsher’s own son experienced a traumatic outcome from his use of marijuana. Now in recovery, he is interviewed in the film, explaining some of the difficulties he’s faced as a result of his use. Belsher, a graphic designer and musician, decided to produce the documentary while on the set of one of her recent music videos: Gather The Dreams. The video is an homage to her son’s recovery.
