New Frontier’s CEO Giadha Aguirre de Carcer featured in Documentary, “Mary Janes: The Women of Weed, Do They Own the Future of Pot?”
Mary Janes: The Women of Weed is the latest film coming from documentary director Windy Borman. The director’s two previous films, The Eyes of Thailand (2012) and The Big Picture: Rethinking Dyslexia (2012), have won awards, opened minds, and celebrated the heroics that result when seemingly everyday people persevere in the good struggle. Borman’s newest foray into steadfast action in difficult circumstances focuses on several female pioneers in the burgeoning legal-marijuana movement and economy.
From the Mary Janes homepage:
“Mary Janes: The Women of Weed [is] a groundbreaking, feature-length documentary film that follows female “ganjapreneurs” as they navigate the budding US marijuana industry. Their experience with the medical, legal, technical, scientific and business aspects of cannabis paint a multidimensional portrait of the emerging and influential group of female pot entrepreneurs.”
