Square Grouper: The Godfathers of Ganja : ウィキペディア英語版 | Square Grouper: The Godfathers of Ganja ''Square Grouper: The Godfathers of Ganja'' is a 2011 documentary by director Billy Corben (''Cocaine Cowboys'') and produced by Alfred Spellman and Billy Corben through their Miami-based media studio Rakontur. The term ''square grouper'' was a nickname given to bales of marijuana thrown overboard or out of airplanes in South Florida in the 70's and 80's. In sharp contrast to the brazenly violent "Cocaine Cowboys" of the 1980s, Miami's marijuana smugglers were cooler, calmer, and typically nonviolent. ''Square Grouper'' paints a vivid portrait of Miami's pot smuggling culture in the '70s and '80s and its major players: the smuggling Black Tuna Gang, the pot dealing Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church and the tiny fishing village Everglades City. ==Synopsis== In 1979, the U.S. Customs Service reported that 87% of all marijuana seizures in the U.S. were made in the South Florida area. Due to the region's 5,000 miles of coast and coastal waterways and close proximity to the Caribbean and Latin America, South Florida was a pot smuggler's paradise. ''Square Grouper: The Godfathers of Ganja'' is a colorful portrait of Miami's pot smuggling scene of the 1970s, populated with redneck pirates, a ganja-smoking church, and the longest serving marijuana prisoner in American history.
