The Story of Plastic is a seething expose uncovering the ugly fact behind the present international plastic air pollution disaster. Putting footage shot over three continents illustrates the continuing disaster: fields filled with rubbish, veritable mountains of trash; rivers and seas clogged with waste; and skies choked with the toxic runoff from plastic manufacturing and recycling processes endlessly. Authentic animations, interviews with consultants and activists, and never-before-filmed scenes reveal the disastrous penalties of the flood of plastic smothering ecosystems and poisoning communities around the globe – and the worldwide motion rising up in response.
