A new documentary: 
THE SUBSTANCE – A journey through time in broad cinematic arcs, with
archival material from private sources that have not been released
before, newly processed international archives and principal witnesses
of the historical events – and obviously Albert Hofmann, the main
character who has his say time and again, interviewed shortly before his
death.
Synopsis:
By coincidence rather then by design the swiss chemist Albert Hofmann
makes a sensational discovery in the spring of 1943. He realizes that
he is dealing with a powerful molecule that will have an impact not only
on the scientific world. THE SUBSTANCE - is an investigation into our
troubled relation with LSD. Told from its beginnings until today.
