DC Environmental Film Festival 2022 Shorts Winner – Orgiastic Hyper-Plastic (7 minutes)
An animated extravaganza of plastic collected from beaches, roadsides, attics and junk shops. This is an elegy to a love affair that has gone sour, a fond farewell to that most beautiful material that has enslaved our planet – plastic. This experimental film showcases Paul Bush’s pioneering technique of animated photographs and stop frame animation of objects. Plastic Change
DCEFF has been the premier festival showcase of environmental films since 1993.
