An average guy makes a resolution to stop using plastic bags at the grocery store. Little does he know that this simple decision will change his life completely. He comes to the conclusion that our consumptive use of plastic has finally caught up to us, and looks at what we can do about it. Today. Right now.

What begins as a quirky personal resolution to ditch grocery store plastic quickly spirals into a frantic, eye-opening investigation of our global addiction to disposables. This documentary swaps heavy-handed preaching for a humorous, boots-on-the-ground look at how one man's small habit exposes a massive systemic problem.
