Plastic People

Are we transforming into Plastic People? This pioneering documentary delves into our reliance on plastic and the escalating danger posed by microplastics to human health. Nearly all plastic ever produced eventually breaks down into “microplastics.” These tiny particles are found in the air, water, and soil. Alarmingly, top scientists are now detecting them within our bodies: in organs, blood, brain tissue, and even in the placentas of new mothers. What are the health implications of these unseen intruders? Ziya Tong, a science journalist and author, brings a personal touch by engaging with leading scientists and conducting experiments in her home, on her food, and on her body.
