Nectarball is more than a single film—it’s a movement of truth-telling through media. At its core are the award-winning filmmakers Patty Mooney and Mark Schulze of New & Unique Videos, whose cannabis-centered documentaries illuminate the plant’s rich history, powerful healing potential, and the voices of those shaping its future.
Their cannabis-focused films are not only cinematic works, but vital educational tools that dismantle stigma and celebrate the full spectrum of cannabis culture and science.
🎬 NECTARBALL: The Story of Cannabis
The cornerstone of the project. Filmed over seven years across five continents, this epic documentary brings together more than 165 voices—patients, scientists, nurses, farmers, historians, and cultural icons. NECTARBALL explores cannabis as medicine, sacred plant, industry, and agent of social transformation.
🎬 12 Black Cannabis Visionaries
This short, vibrant film honors twelve groundbreaking African American leaders in the cannabis space. From entrepreneurs to educators, healers to advocates, their stories are essential to understanding equity and progress within the cannabis movement.
🎬 Fighting Cancer with Cannabis
A deeply human documentary chronicling the journeys of patients who turned to cannabis during their fight with cancer. The film exposes the hurdles they face and underscores the plant’s potential as a life-affirming option in integrative care.
Each of these films forms a vital part of the NECTARBALL Project, which also includes the CANNAMINUTES™ video series and ongoing media, writing, and educational initiatives. Together, they invite viewers to reimagine cannabis—not as contraband, but as companion.
