The True Cost Official Trailer 1 (2015) - Documentary HD
The True Cost is a documentary film exploring the impact of fashion on people and the planet.

[@freespirit101]

" What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his soul ?" - is a reminder of what's going on

[@laurab.8761]

This documentary inspired me to do my graduation project about our fashion industry. It makes me sick and sad, seeing al those people suffer while producing our clothes. When I'm graduated I would love to start an initiative for fair fashion.

[@be1570]

Same it kinda inspired me to do my major work on the materialistic society

[@yasemina8724]

Hi Laura! Two years after your comment here, are you actually doing something in this field? Or do you maybe wanna start something new? :) If so, add me on LinkedIn: Yasemin Sharityar

[@ejbabc]

Wow, Fair Fashion. I love that! 🙌👌🙏💫🌈

[@daimi34]

Just saw this video, I am going to stop buying from fast fashion stores. Also I'd like to know about your initiative for fair fashion

[@virgy151985]

Me too!!! That's so sad

[@bellatrixevans]

And if you guys want to hear something even more ironic - you know how H&M and Gap and Forever 21 are super cheap in the USA? Well they're ridiculously expensive here in places like India (shares a border with Bangladesh, and there are plenty of factories that export cloth from here). So H&M is marketed and sold as an upper-middle class luxury, with the same jacket costing $ 30-40, instead of maybe $15-25 as in the US stores. It's quite absurd

[@tatabatuta6386]

bellatrixevans your own country’s customs.. that’s why.. they charge so much..

[@pretty948]

tatabatuta yeah the point is cheap clothing for you guys are the expensive almost high end clothes here in India. All these middle class people want to look rich enough so they buy from them

[@karinaaburtoperez9334]

the market is very sinister

[@Bournemouthdreamer]

I can recommend this movie to everyone. Watch it. Listen. Change your lifestyle. Preach. After this watching this movie, with tears rolling over my cheeks at times, I wanted to meet the garment workers and apologize for my selfish behavior. Because I never took their situation serious. My life has changed and I hope this movie will change your life too. Because I believe that together we can make this world a better place. And say goodbye to poverty forever. An we have to start somewhere and for me this is a good place to start.

[@rnbsteenstar]

Hemp could help too. The garment workers need to be paid more, too. Also, if you're a sewer and want some of those trends, you could recreate them with your scraps, old clothes, etc.

[@katerinaargyroudi2820]

This documentary has literally opened my eyes and is about to change my plans of my future career. My mindset has shifted and now I see.

[@anula2620]

Another reasons why you should buy your clothes second hand . If you wear something that another person has worn before, you prolong the life of this garment. If a lot of people do that, less new clothes are produced and stop this madness(as well as less waste).

[@parishuxleyb9520]

+M.y.chelle even brands like witchery and other mid-upscale places benefit from sweatshops in third world countries. The best way is to do research before you even enter a shop and be familiarised with the fair strad logos and what they stand for.

[@roma17cesare]

And less of those poor ppl would have a job, that is paying them a $ a day, that they need to survive... don't you get it that is a never ending circle?!..... lots of other things need to change first for that to happen... unfortunately, it's almost impossible in these days society...

[@xciellew]

You know that the economy is based on demand. If WE demand that these workers get treated better, you can actually change the system because these companies want YOUR MONEY. Consumer activism WORKS. Why is there a lot of meat replacement today? Because there' s a market for it and there' s a DEMAND. I suggest that you check consumer activism out! :)

[@looksbyvann608]

Anna K and lots of people lost a job...this will be never working...

[@chainsawkitten3766]

xciellew ponpon the problem is, cost of these items will go up. I mean, look at the price difference between a T-shirt from Walmart and a T-shirt made by a “green” company in the USA of 100% cotton. People want things to stay cheap.

Wow. Very moving trailer (moved me to tears). I'm not a big consumer....however, even I was ashamed of my shallow pursuits for material things, as I watched families being exploited for what will cost us only $9.99, and will eventually end up, of very little consequence, on the floor in a corner of the room.

[@WariorKitty]

'Not to mention the cost to animals' seriously?This documentary is on the suffering of *human beings* , yet you bring up animals....why?

[@luhole]

Because it has a spectacular impact on animals also - how is this unclear? Why can you not care about animals and human beings concurrently? This film is discussing the impact of the garment industry and it has a massive impact on humans, animals and the environment. What do you have against caring for animals?

Really great documentary that everyone should watch! As a vegan, I have done plenty of research on sustainability, fair trade, and other issues, but I never really went into this subject. Made me rethink everything I’ve complained about, the things I have bought, and how close minded I have been.

[@aichitoshiki1321]

Just watching this trailer brought emotional pain. Bless the poor, I pray for them to have a better future🥀

[@alliewithbooks]

The bad part about this is that it is so hard for the majority of people (even in "wealthier" countries) to afford ethically produced clothing. I can't afford ethical clothing, and I know a lot of people who can't either. I can hardly afford the clothing I do buy. So really, people can sit around and tell people that they are awful and should be ashamed for buying cheap clothing, but the reality is is that I can't afford ethical clothing. It isn't that I'm cheap or am hoarding my money. It's that I honest to god don't make enough. So I'm forced to buy my clothes cheap. If anyone knows of ethical, but truly inexpensive clothing brands, I would love to know about them. The fashion industry is such a vicious cycle.

[@naomidebruijn4680]

Thrift shopping!

[@alliewithbooks]

+Naomi de Bruijn Not when you're a size 18 :(

[@edwardnr17]

+Allie Molina Just wear what you already have

[@YBizzy1]

alliembooks it's also about consumerism. Do you NEED it ? Or is it the advertising/instagram that makes you feel that way ? 40-50 years ago people didn't used to buy that much clothes. Now everyone purchase at least 200$ worth of clothing every month. What you can do to change things is buy less, in a more conscious way. Think about what really matters in your life. But I agree that thrift store don't have a lot of options for plus size girls and that ethical brands are super expensive

[@gowrikolal7170]

I totally get what u mean. My country doesn't have a lot of options for ethical eco friendly n cheap clothing either but I buy from local boutiques or have things tailored made so that way I'm at least supporting the local economy

I look at something like this and see the injustice and oppression and wonder what can a person like me do about this? Boycott? Then these people will be even worse off with no jobs. Do we never buy another item of clothing pr shoes ever again? Certainly we will have to at some point. All I can say to people experiencing such wrongs is this." Wait on the Lord and be of good courage and He shall strengthen your hearts. wait I say on the Lord." Psalm 1:27. I know God sees it all and He will punish those who take advantage of their labourers by injustice and oppression. "Look here, you rich people: Weep and groan with anguish because of all the terrible troubles ahead of you. Your wealth is rotting away, and your fine clothes are moth-eaten rags. Your gold and silver are corroded. The very wealth you were counting on will eat away your flesh like fire. This corroded treasure you have hoarded will testify against you on the day of judgment. For listen! Hear the cries of the field workers whom you have cheated of their pay. The cries of those who harvest your fields have reached the ears of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. You have spent your years on earth in luxury, satisfying your every desire. You have fattened yourselves for the day of slaughter. You have condemned and killed innocent people, who do not resist you." James 5:1-6

[@nayomeer4736]

I had heard of cheap fast fashion coming from "WalMart" the cheap prices they offer come at a heft price for someone else in another part of the globe. That's why I don't shop there, no matter what. Low Morals, Low Ethics always. I have stopped buying new clothes and instead upcycle from friends, family, and thrift stores, garage sales. But with the help of this film I now know of the many other companies that are contributing to the poor deplorable extremely dangerous labor conditions being forced on people who are trying to put food on their families table, and allowing me to share this information with others. Exposing these companies. It's a travesty..alot of people don't know what is going on.
