Let's get into the show, starting with Scott, our filmmaker, and how he found himself documenting several seniors at a psilocybin retreat in Mexico.

Scott Paul WrightGUEST
I did a journey when I was 68 years old, three years ago, and it so profoundly, wonderfully changed my life that in the integration sessions afterwards with Maria, the facilitator I worked with in Mexico, she said that she'd had a download during my journey that I needed to be working in this space somehow, and I thought, "Wow, I'd never thought about that." She said, "Maybe there's a movie or something," and she didn't know that I was a filmmaker.

Scott Paul WrightGUEST
So we hatched the idea to put together a retreat, and we could see if we could find people who were willing to come and be filmed going through all of this and just baring their souls and laying it all out there.

Scott Paul WrightGUEST
And eight people from the US, Canada, UK all came, and we put together this retreat over the course of four days in, in San Miguel and filmed it all.

Scott Paul WrightGUEST
Th- these were the people who were seeking this medicine out, seeking this therapy out.
