Into the Weeds is presented free thanks to Colorado State University’s Thematic Year of Health. Limited seats available.
About the film
Into the Weeds: Dewayne “Lee” Johnson vs. Monsanto chronicles the explosive and historic legal case that exposed Monsanto’s complicity in concealing the known carcinogenic effects of exposure to the popular weed killer Roundup. Paced like a legal thriller, the documentary examines intersections of human rights, health, environmental justice, and corporate responsibility.
