Boulder International Film Festival: The Story of Plastic

This searing exposé uncovers the ugly truth behind plastic pollution and the false solution of plastic recycling. Different from every other plastic documentary you’ve seen, the film presents a cohesive timeline of how we got to our current global plastic pollution crisis and how the oil and gas industry has successfully manipulated the narrative around it. This film introduces audiences to the heroes and villains behind one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues, from the extraction of fossil fuels to plastic disposal and the global resistance fighting back. Revealing the urgent information global audiences need to know immediately, through life-changing footage shot all over the world, The Story of Plastic will not only change viewers’ lives but will also fuel a worldwide movement.
