Manufactured Landscapes

My iPod doesn't actually come from a copper mine in Arizona. It comes from China. And when it eventually gets destroyed, a lot of it will go back to China a scrap and possibly as toxic waste.

Manufactured Landscapes is a documentary I saw recently, on DVD from the library. It's really stirring in its silent depiction of the industrial landscape of the workshop to the world, China.

Here's the trailer. I really recommend it.
