    Brief synopsis

    There are 500 times more plastic particles in the world's oceans than there are stars in our galaxy. Plastic is in the oceans, rivers, air, soil and inside ourselves. Probably the most important climate film of the year, with an attentive eye on greenwashing and climate racism.
