The Sunshine Makers

“Two warriors for peace, a vat of chemicals and an LSD cookbook. What could possibly go wrong?”

Synopsis

The story of Nicholas Sand and Tim Scully, the unlikely duo at the heart of 1960s American drug counter-culture. United in a utopian mission to save the planet through the consciousness-raising power of LSD, these underground chemists manufactured a massive amount of acid, including the gold standard for quality LSD, 'Orange Sunshine,' all while staying one step ahead of the Feds.
