on Hempen Road . . .

The HempenRoad film project
A travel documentary film series about commercial hemp



It's a movie about a plant . . .

. . . culture, art, economics and environment converging in an independent, multi-media film.

"...and there's at least one moment that is downright poetic"
-- HempWorld magazine.

Filmmakers Eiji Masuda and Dave Olson

"This is as much a travelogue of the Pacific northwest as it is a hemp video. The opening credits, soundtrack and narration give a good idea of what is in store: a collage of images, sounds and ideas."
--Journal of the IHA
