Drug me

Insane experiments with extremely powerful mind-altering substances were carried out by the US Army and the CIA on unwitting human subjects. Drills on acid are fun to watch, but we also get to see traumatised privates struggling with nightmared decades after the fact.

Who knows better about LSD than LSD itself? The substance puports to bust myths and teach facts about itself, but governmental bias lurks behind every frame.

The Olson case, named after an army scientist who fell 10 storeys down to his death days after having been dosed with LSD by CIA operatives, is set out against a selection of drug scare fragments from the same period. Official stand and real life practice are slightly different.
