It represents the very up-to-date and ever so present idea of stopping the exploitation of limited resources and more so that of the overall people in not just the 'third world', but also that in in the huge 'first world' countries such as the US and Europe.

The film of 20 minutes uses the idea of closely observing and explicitly explaining the actual story of where our consumable 'stuff' comes from, how it is produced, why it never survives long and how it is disposed.

The film (flash): The Story of Stuff
