Cannabis seeds as souvenir in Romania – vpro Metropolis 2014

Seeds
Weed is illegal and also taboo in Romania. But still you can buy cannabis seeds as a souvenir, but you may not plant the seeds. Gabi sells the seeds, but he always warns customers: ‘It’s on your own risk, if you use the seeds for other purposes. If you use weed and the police catches you, you’re going to jail for a long, time. ‘It is ‘better’ to go to jail for murder, instead of going to jail for weed.’

vpro Metropolis was a video project by Dutch broadcast organisation vpro, that ran from 2008 to 2015. Metropolis is made by a global collective of young filmmakers and TV producers, reporting on remarkable stories from their own country/city. We made a trip around the globe on one single issue: from local beauty ideals to Elvis impersonators, to what’s it like being gay, or an outcast or a dog in different cultures.
