Timothy Leary and the Mad Men of Millbrook

Against the turbulent backdrop of the 1960s, a group of psychedelic researchers gathered in a commune in Millbrook, NY under the leadership of Timothy Leary. Dedicated to the attempt to create a society based on peace, love, and LSD, the commune soon found that it was not fully possible to leave the outside world behind. Internal strife and external persecution created tensions that could not be overcome. This is the story of the last days of Millbrook and the remarkable and colorful personalities who created the Psychedelic Revolution and set in motion social changes that have become a regular part of our modern view of life.
