Check out the film poster for pot doc ‘Rolling Papers’ before its SXSW debut

Documentary film “Rolling Papers” debuts next weekend at the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, but the filmmakers released the movie’s poster today, via Crave Online.

As you might gather from the poster below, “Rolling Papers” is a play on two very different industries — legal marijuana and newspaper-rooted journalism — and it explores the lives of various Denver Post and Cannabist writers who covered legal weed’s first big year in Colorado, Uruguay and beyond.
