The True Cost plot
"Who Pays the Price for Our Clothing?"
This is a story about clothes. It's about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the industry has on our world. The price of clothing has decreased for decades, while humanity and the burden on the environment have grown dramatically. This documentary pulls open the curtain that hides an unseen part of the world and asks us to consider who really pays the price for our clothes. Filmed in countries around the world, from luxurious places to the darkest slums, and featuring interviews with leading influencers including Stella McCartney, Livia Firth and Vandana Shiva. “The True Cost” is a project that invites us on an enlightening journey around the world and takes a look at the lives of the many people and places behind our clothes.
