Trashed

About This Movie

So, 'Trashed' is this documentary where Jeremy Irons takes us on a bit of a global journey, and it’s not your usual documentary fare. The film has a stark, almost somber tone, reflecting on humanity’s messy relationship with waste. Irons' narration ties together various scenes that reveal the scale of pollution and waste we’ve created, and it's pretty eye-opening. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative at times, allowing the weight of the subject matter to sink in. What stands out is the practical effects of showing waste in these various environments—it really drives home the point. It feels more like a personal exploration than a lecture, which makes it distinctive in the realm of environmental films.
