The Story of Plastic
Cinematography
La historia del plástico es una exposición hirviente que revela la fea verdad detrás de la actual crisis mundial de contaminación por plástico. Imágenes impactantes filmadas en tres continentes ilustran la catástrofe en curso: campos llenos de basura, verdaderas montañas de basura; ríos y mares obstruidos con desechos; y cielos ahogados con la escorrentía venenosa de los procesos de producción y reciclaje de plástico sin un final a la vista. Animaciones originales, entrevistas con expertos y activistas, y escenas nunca antes filmadas revelan las desastrosas consecuencias de la inundación de ecosistemas que asfixian el plástico y envenenan a las comunidades de todo el mundo, y el movimiento global que surge en respuesta.
