After tackling climate change, fracking, and the Dakota pipeline protests in her previous films, environmental advocate filmmaker Deia Schlosberg turns her lens on plastic pollution and ironically creates one of the most beautifully crafted documentaries on one of the world’s ugliest problems. Striking footage, original animations, and archival material combine to point out the disastrous impact of the manufacture and use of plastics, shedding new light on a pressing global challenge that threatens the life expectancy of animals, humans, and Earth itself. This documentary will be preceded by a short stop-motion animation made by high school students, examining global pollution from the viewpoint of the younger generation who are inheriting the environmental problems of this world.
