Can A Psychedelic Plant Release Your Demons?
I’m Dangerous With Love – An underground adventure into shamanic ritual.
Dimitri Mugianis in I’M DANGEROUS WITH LOVE
African shamans have used the hallucinogen Ibogaine in their rituals for centuries, but in the US it is classified as a Schedule 1 controlled substance and illegal.
I’m Dangerous With Love features Dimitri Mugianis, once the heavily addicted front man for the band Leisure Class, who finally ended his long drug and alcohol addiction with an experimental treatment that uses Ibogaine.
The movie traces Dimitri’s risky journey as he treats desperate drug users. It follows this man of edgy energy as he goes from one addict to the next without stopping to catch his breath. It also follows him on his own search for recovery when one session goes bad in a remote snowed-in Canadian home, and a quiet young man almost dies.
Dimitri must decide whether or not to continue his mission. Is he serving the addicts or simply releasing his own demons? To find answers, Dimitri travels to Gabon, West Africa, to consult with Bwiti shamans, and puts himself through a punishing Iboga initiation.
Emmy award-winning filmmaker Michel Negroponte follows him on this journey to find his own answers.
