What happens

Trashed is an environmental documentary film, written and directed by British film-maker Candida Brady. It follows actor Jeremy Irons as he investigates the global scale and impact of humanity's modern wasteful consumerism and pollution. The film is a call for urgent action to resolve the issue of existing deposits and drastically reduce our consumption towards sustainable levels and zero waste, but also demonstrates how this is already being achieved successfully in many communities around the world. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 22, 2012, where it was nominated for the Camera d'Or. In the United States it was released on December 14, 2012, and the United Kingdom and other countries the following year. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
