🎥 About the Film
Plastic People is a powerful documentary that uncovers a shocking truth:
Plastic isn’t just polluting our oceans, it’s now inside our bodies!
Through cutting-edge science, personal stories and investigative journalism, this film reveals how microplastics have entered our bloodstream, lungs and even breast milk, raising urgent questions about our health and future.
This eye-opening film challenges us to confront the plastic crisis not as an environmental issue alone, but a deeply human one.
