OPT-IN Screening Room
Explore psychedelic medicine through film
We watch these documentaries together, then talk about what they show and what they leave out. Each film has an OPT-IN brief on the medicine behind it: where it stands with the FDA, what's legal in Ohio, the paths people take, harm-reduction essentials, and questions for discussion.
Upcoming screenings are listed on our Events page. New here? Start with How to Change Your Mind.
