Episode 1 • Nov 30, 2011
World's Largest Medical Marijuana Dispensary
Steve DeAngelo and his family run Harborside Health Center - the worlds' largest and most successful Medical Marijuana dispensary on the planet. But when Oakland voters approve a 5% tax hike on all dispensaries, they effectively slap the DeAngelo brothers with a 1.2 million dollar tax bill...due in one week. Steve dispatches his CFO Luigi to city hall to try and fight the battle. If they lose their appeal, it could mean the end of their business. And Harborside "Budtender" Terryn begins growing weed to make ends meet. But when he learns the true demands of being a "patient-farmer", he questions the direction of his life.
Episode 2 • Dec 07, 2011
Federal Crackdown
While in the midst of a Federal Tax Audit, Harborside Health Center's, Steve DeAngelo learns that the IRS intends to apply 280E, an obscure tax code that will label the dispensary as a Drug Trafficking organization,effectively put them out of business. As Steve and his crew prepare to fight back, The U.S. Justice department begins shutting down neighboring dispensaries. Could these two actions possibly be unrelated, or are the Feds launching a coordinated attack against Medical Marijuana? All the while, Steve's brother Andrew provides a helping hand to the father of an epileptic child as he administers Cannabis to his four-year old for the first time; and Jon, a patient-farmer struggles to save a harvest from a spider mite infestation.
Episode 3 • Dec 14, 2011
Harborside's Employee Betrayal
Even though Harborside Health Center is the largest and most successful Medical Cannabis dispensary on the planet, it's still truly a family business. So when Steve DeAngelo leaves his Oakland dispensary for a much-needed two-week vacation, he entrusts day to day operations to the general manager -- his younger brother Andrew. But as soon as Steve's plane lifts off, Andrew discovers an evil voodoo mask, slipping Yelp reviews, and complaints about Harborside's "medicine". Andrew tries everything in his power to right the ship before his brother's return - but within hours of Steve's arrival, Andrew learns of a personal betrayal within Harborside's ranks, that will truly break his brother's heart.
Episode 4 • Dec 21, 2011
Harborside's Alternative 4/20 Celebration
April 20th, known within the Cannabis community simply as "4/20" has been the unofficial international weed holiday for over 30 years - and it's also Harborside Health Center's busiest sales day of the year. As much as Steve DeAngelo loves 4/20 as a day of celebration and booming business, he fears that widespread images of tie-dyed hippies smoking 6 foot joints ultimately damages the credibility of their "medical movement" with the public at large. This year, only three days after 4/20, Harborside Health Center is launching "Deep Green", a festival aimed at characterizing Marijuana not as an intoxicant, but as an aid to wellness. Will their festival dramatically re-brand the public's image of the plant, or simply attract the same old stoners?

Koi

There's no definitive separation as long as there is memory. Since the Tsunami hit the northern part of Japan's coast in 2011, more than 20 thousand people lost their lives, and many others are still missing. As time went by the families of the victims abandoned all hope and stopped looking for their loved ones. However, this is the story of two men that are still fully committed to their respective searching activities. Even though their backgrounds are extremely different, both share a strong force of will and firmly wish to keep alive the memories of the ones that went missing. Perseverance is what pushed an ex-convict to look for redemption by helping the victims' families to find the remains of their loved ones, and perseverance is what brought a bus driver to start to dive in order to search for his wife.
