The True Cost is about the impact of fashion on people and the planet. As described on the movie's website...
This is a story about clothing. It’s
about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the
industry is having on our world. The price of clothing has been
decreasing for decades, while the human and environmental costs have
grown dramatically. The True Cost is a groundbreaking documentary film
that pulls back the curtain on the untold story and asks us to
consider, who really pays the price for our clothing?
Filmed in countries all over the
world, from the brightest runways to the darkest slums, and featuring
interviews with the world’s leading influencers including Stella
McCartney, Livia Firth and Vandana Shiva, The True Cost is an
unprecedented project that invites us on an eye opening journey around
the world and into the lives of the many people and places behind our
clothes.
