THE NORTH DRIFT // Plastic in the Ocean // Pix Politics

Bottle Mail from Dresden // THE NORTH DRIFT // Pix Politikk

A bottle’s journey from Dresden to Northern Norway along the Elbe tells a frightening story of garbage and micro plastic, and of the fatal consequences waste has on our ecosystems – all wrapped up in Norway’s beautiful nature.

Filmmaker Steffen Krones picks up the bottle and brings it back to Germany. Here he deposits it, but he can’t get the bottle’s journey out of his mind. Along with engineer Paul Weiß he starts a project with the aim of charting out where plastic waste moves as a result of the ocean currents.
