My friend Andy of Shelter productions makes the videos with the entent of getting funding to film a documentory of this story.
What we want to do is travel to China, meet the people making the products that are being shipped over, driven on the highway over my house and follow them to the consumer. All along the way showing the true cost of consumerism to the people and getting there reactions!
