The Story of Stuff (2007)

12/04/2007 (US) • 22m

Animation, Documentary

How our obsession with stuff is trashing the planet, out communities, and our health — and a vision for change.

Overview

For most of the world, consumption has been the unquestioned duty of every individual. Then garbage activist Annie Leonard brought her two-hour lecture to Free Range who helped her turn it into a 20-minute animated revolution. Shown in thousands of classrooms, endlessly blasted by Fox News, viewed more than 10 million times, The Store of Stuff finally opens the door to a serious cultural dialog about the costs of consumption.
