K2: Selling Death is a short film about the epidemic of the street drug K2, a synthetic cannabinoid. Told as a heartfelt plea by a homeless man, Renee Joseph Hall, who witnesses the harrowing effects of K2 every day – people becoming catatonic, crashing onto the sidewalk, and in some cases suffering from cardiac arrest and dying. In the film, Hall talks emotionally about the K2 problem and expresses his fervent hope to get out of homelessness and help others on the street.
