TRUE COST 2

Skirball Cultural Center presents The True Cost: The price of clothing has been decreasing for decades, while the human and environmental costs have grown dramatically. A story about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the industry is having on the world, The True Cost is a groundbreaking documentary that asks us to consider who really pays the price for our clothing. Filmed in countries all over the world, from the brightest runways to the darkest slums, and featuring interviews with the world’s leading influencers, including Stella McCartney, Livia Firth, and Vandana Shiva, The True Cost is an unprecedented project that invites us on an eye-opening journey into the lives of the many people and places behind our clothes. Winner of the SIMA 2016 Lens to Action Jury Prize. Directed by Andrew Morgan. (USA, 2014, 92 min. Rated PG-13.)
