ABOUT THE FILM
DIRECTOR: Ben Addelman
CO-DIRECTOR: Ziya Tong
EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Rick Smith, Peter Raymont PRODUCTION COMPANY: White Pine Pictures
RUN TIME: 82 minutes
Synopsis:
The ground-breaking feature documentary investigates our addiction to plastic and the growing threat of microplastics on human health. Almost every bit of plastic ever made breaks down into “microplastics.” These microscopic particles drift in the air, float in all bodies of water, and mix into the soil, becoming a permanent part of the environment. Now, leading scientists are finding these particles in our bodies: organs, blood, brain tissue, and even the placentas of new mothers. What is the impact of these invisible invaders on our health? And can anything be done about it?
Acclaimed author and science journalist Ziya Tong takes a personal approach by visiting leading scientists around the world and undergoing experiments in her home, on her food, and her body while collaborating with award-winning director Ben Addelman in an urgent call to action for all of us to rethink our relationship with plastic.
