‘The war is against plastic and they are casualties on the frontline’
Following his shocking photographs of dead albatross chicks and the diet of plastic that killed them, Chris Jordan’s film “Albatross” is a call to action to repair our broken relationship with planet Earth.
Chris Jordan is an internationally acclaimed artist whose work explores contemporary mass culture from multiple perspectives, connecting the viewer viscerally to the enormity and power of humanity’s collective unconscious. The documentary, ALBATROSS is a powerful visual journey into the heart of a gut-wrenching environmental tragedy.
On one of the remotest islands on Earth, tens of thousands of albatross chicks lie dead on the ground, their bodies filled with plastic. ALBATROSS walks us through the fire of horror and grief, facing the immensity of this tragedy — and our own complicity — head on. We wish to thank Chris for allowing use of albatrossthefilm photos and movie trailer footage in support of the message of Planetary Overload.
