The Story Of Stuff est un petit film d'une vingtaine de minutes qui retrace toute la chaîne de production des objets de consommation courante --de l'extraction des ressources naturelles, jusqu'aux usines de recyclage. Se regarde facilement (si on comprend l'anglais) et donne à réfléchir sur les (graves) limites du système actuel.
