Passionate and compassionate account of fast fashion’s social and environmental impacts
The True Cost documents filmmaker Andrew Morgan’s efforts to understand the world of fast fashion (with it’s “fifty two seasons a year” marked by $5 shirts and $20 pairs of jeans), a world that’s only existed for a few decades and has had enormous impacts on people’s lives in both high- and low-income economies. It’s a well-traveled and wide-ranging film, sometimes so much so that you get a bit lost for it’s jumping from one place to another. But the economic systems that connect garment workers in countries like Bangladesh and Cambodia to North American, European, and Asian consumers are complicated, often intentionally obscure, and they affect people and ecosystems all over the globe, so the film’s wide angle view makes sense. To covers so much means that the film sometimes jumps quickly from topic to topic, without digging very deeply into any one issue for long (towards the end of the film, for example, its critique of consumerist / materialist capitalism follows logically from all we’ve seen, but the discussion can’t do justice to the complexity of the questions posed). But for a documentary meant to introduce the topic, that’s a reasonable directorial choice to make. Beautifully filmed, with passionate, informed, and compassionate interviewees, The True Cost is worth watching.

I made that dress
This is an interesting documentary on the garment/fashion industry that is destroying the planet and people’s lives. The film juxtapositions western consumerism and third world conditions, but not so much to drive the point as a Michael Moore film. It appears instead of buying clothes that will last we buy throw away items. The result is environmentally bad. Interesting to find out is that we also send so much donated items to Haiti, that we have ruined their local garment industry.

The film also looks at farms, seeds, pesticides, and disease in the third world due to the garment industry. It pushes “Fair Trade” on us. Steven Colbert has replaced Noam Chomsky for commentary, for better or worse. The Stella McCartney train interview with shadows hiding an oddly tilted head should have been shot over. During the film a Bangladesh factory worker has supposed to visit London (?) and report back to the village about their customers. I expected that to be the climax of the film with her saying something poignant, but it never happened. Too much Stella McCartney.

This was a three star production on a five star message. Was this a commercial for “Fair Trade?”

Note to self: Jos. A. Banks is cheaper than paper towels.
