Two-day Cannabis Culture Film Festival Kicks Off This Friday
ONEONTA—“Astral Plane Drifter” will headline as the feature film at the Cannabis Culture Film Festival at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 6 at Foothills Performing Arts and Civic Center. The two-day festival begins at 8 p.m. on Friday, September 5 with a screening of “The Big Lebowski.” Comedian Rob Cantrell (”The Last O.G.”, “The Colbert Report”) will host the event on both days. Cantrell hosts the “The Cannabis Coffee Hour” on all podcast platforms.
Directed by Scott Slone, “Astral Plane Drifter” (2024, 1:28) is a mix of western, sci-fi, kung-fu, comedy and horror, “about a man called Drifter who goes on an existential journey through a maze of outrageous scenarios with his trusted sidekick ... to save the day. The girl. And maybe even the universe!”
The feature film will wrap a day of festival selections from the CCFF team and Film Otsego, co-sponsors of the event with DOSHA Farms Dispensary and Foothills PACC. More than a dozen films have been selected for their CCFF debut in Oneonta on September 6. The films cross genres, but all have to do with cannabis.
“We’re really excited to bring Rob Cantrell and the Cannabis Culture Film Fest to Stoneonta,” Otsego County Film Commissioner Greg Klein said in a media release. “They found a great slate of films for us to show.”
