Know Your Mushrooms is a 2008 documentary film by Canadian director Ron Mann.
The 74 minute Sphinx Productions film examines the counterculture Telluride Mushroom Festival, held annually in Telluride, Colorado and some of the mycologists and funghiphiles that gather there such as Larry Evans and Gary Lincoff, author of seven mushroom identification guidebooks, including the Audubon Field Guide to Mushrooms.
The soundtrack includes music by the Flaming Lips and The Sadies.
Know Your Mushrooms is more about hard science and gourmet cuisine than space-outs and the munchies.
