Message from a Bottle
Directed by
Only 9% of the 8.3 billion tons of plastic produced since 1950 has been recycled. Every year at least 8 million tons winds up in the ocean. How can this disastrous course be reversed? The film documents the simple yet innovative way in which PET is recycled in Hawassa, Ethiopia. A chain of positive reactions that could involve the entire continent.
