X Trillion
Synopsis
X TRILLION is a film about an all-woman crew who sailed 3000 nautical miles to one of the most remote places on Earth - the North Pacific Gyre or the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The aim was to research the densest accumulation of ocean plastic in the world.
It was a journey that promised to change not only their lives but the very future of our planet.
Director Eleanor Church was part of a team of 14 women from around the world - from scientists to packaging designers, engineers, teachers, artists and more - each one looking and learning about this issue from a very different perspective. This was eXXpedition's 10th voyage.
The crew spent three weeks sailing through the middle of this gyre, collecting scientific data for international research projects with a focus on how these trillions of pieces of micro plastics are impacting human, and particularly women’s, health.
This is a story of hope, filled with life, magic and a call to action that burns with optimism.

Hello You is an autopsy of your reflection. This mirror has two sides: one that observes, and another that follows.
