The True Cost | Movie Night @ Upstate Films, Rhinebeck

Andrew Morgan’s stirring doc details the devastating environmental and social effects of the increasingly pervasive “fast fashion” industry. Fashion is the second most-polluting industry in the world, second only to oil; we now consume 500% more clothing than we did two decades ago; in 1960 America produced over 95% of its own clothing, while today the figure stands at 3%. (dir. Andrew Morgan, U.S., 2015, 93 min.)

Hopefully more films like The True Cost will mark the beginning of a movement and not just a brief, painful journey into a world we’d rather forget.” — Hollywood Reporter
