As a mycologist, I thought that I was going to see something interesting; also as a consumer of psychedeleic Mushrooms, I thought "wow this is my documentary!". Then I started watching people talkng with the nature, things that I know about fungy, they get together, you don´t understand why?? You don´t understand the editing of the documentary that is acompletely mess. What is it about? Old people taking young people into the psychedelic world.... NO!
It was horrible watching it, not funny, not understandable, not entertaiment, no new information... I was bored by 32 minutes in the film; I though... well It is short, only 78 mnutes, but it looks like 3 hours of nonsense. Don´t waste your time with it.

Plot summary
What happens if you give magic mushrooms (psilocibine) to experienced Zen practitioners who have never used drugs? What does that teach us about the mystical experience of oneness with nature? Based on these questions, psychiatrist Franz Vollenweider and Zen master Vanja Palmers set up a legal science experiment in a monastery at the top of Mount Rigi in Switzerland. Exactly 50 years after the magic mushrooms were officially banned, a new story begins in what is now called the “psychedelic renaissance”. While in 2021 most studies with psychedelics mainly focus on their promising medical applications, Frans and Vanja are already going a step further. Can the combination of meditation and psilocibin help humanity get out of the mess we have created on ourselves and the planet with our neo-liberal society?
