Overview
Set along the stunning coast of Gunung Kidul, UNESCO Global Geopark, Yogyakarta, Java, Indonesia, Plastic Tourism explores the paradox of a tropical paradise threatened by plastic waste and uncontrolled tourism. Through immersive visuals and local voices, the film reveals the environmental impact while highlighting grassroots initiatives, from beach clean-ups to creative plastic recycling. At its heart are Javanese traditions and spirituality, including the Larungan ocean offering ceremony, an expression of gratitude and harmony with nature.
