Four years after the Texas Compassionate Use Act legalized medical cannabis oil for Texans diagnosed with intractable epilepsy, Chasing Hope gives an unflinching look into the lives of six families currently using CBD oil as a treatment.
Through a series of intimate interviews with parents, children, a neurologist, and the owner of a Texas cannabis cultivator; this mini documentary goes beyond the health benefits to explore the regulations and costly implications of this potentially life-changing medication.
