The Sunshine Makers

The Beckley Foundation is proud to announce the screening of The Sunshine Makers at Psychedelic Science 2017, a feature documentary by Amanda Feilding’s son, Cosmo Feilding Mellen. 

From the producer of Searching For Sugarman, The Sunshine Makers reveals the extraordinary, untold story of Nicholas Sand and Tim Scully, the unlikely duo at the heart of the 1960s psychedelic revolution.  

United by a belief that ‘turning on’ the world through LSD could bring about peace and love on a global scale, Tim Scully and Nick Sands created the purest and most iconic acid ever produced – the legendary Orange Sunshine. Manufacturing the hallucinogenic drug on an industrial scale, they became two of the most prolific narcotics dealers in American history – or as their distributor Mike Randall puts it, “we touched more souls than Jesus.”

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