Plastic Warriors

Synopsis

An inspiring feature documentary that investigates the damaging effects of plastic pollution on our health, lifestyle and wildlife. The film tells the story of the Plastic Warriors - from eminent scientists, campaigners on the front line, to the innovators and designers working on solutions to solve this global crisis that politicians and governments are largely ignoring. The film takes audiences on a journey to deep sea coral reefs, basking shark hotspots and huge seabird colonies, to discover first-hand the extreme danger of the scourge of plastic that’s engulfing every aspect of their lives. PLASTIC WARRIORS is an urgent wakeup call and a film that inspires action.
