HASHISH |
| |
For
centuries the lives of the people of Ketama, a small
village high up in the mountains of northern Morocco,
have been intricately tied in with the drug hashish.
Hashish as daily labour, hashish as a bartering good,
hashish as business, hashish as the basis and philosophy
of a social system, hashish as the medium of dreams
and hashish as the reason for stagnation. The film
sketches a portrait of this life: a look at work and
daily family life; the drug; music and landscape as
a metaphysical projection surface; the question of
freedom in a globalized world; and, at the core of
the film, the stories of the people.

Director:
Paul Wendkos
Cast: Dennis
Weaver, Richard Dysart, Arthur Hill,
Susan Sullivan
The tragic story of Dr. Samuel Mudd of Maryland, who in
1865 was arrested for his alleged complicity in the conspiracy
to assassinate Abraham Lincoln and sentenced by an illegal
military court to a lifetime of hard labor at the American
penal colony of Fort Jefferson on the Dry Tortugas. The
unfortunate Mudd (Dennis Weaver), whose only “crime”
was to set the broken leg of a mud-caked stranger —
who turned out to be John Wilkes Booth — endures
the cruelties of the sadistic commandant and the condemnation
of the public at large, until his selfless courage during
a yellow fever epidemic earns him a pardon by President
Andrew Johnson. The film implicates Lincoln’s secretary
of war Edwin Stanton (Richard Dysart), whom some conspiracy
theorists now believe was behind the assassination plot.
