Environmentally friendly electric cars, sustainably produced food, fair production: Hooray! The big companies would have us believe that we can save the world just by buying the right stuff. But this is a widespread and dangerous lie.

In his latest documentary, Werner Boote (Plastic Planet, Everything’s Under Control) joins forces with Katharina Hartmann, an expert in greenwashing, to explore how we can fight back against this lie.
