Waste on the shores, waste on the mountains. On ocean floors and deep down in the earth. „Matter Out of Place” is a film about rubbish, which has spread across the world, to the most remote corners of the planet. Nikolaus Geyrhalter follows the traces of our rubbish across the planet and sheds light on the endless struggle of people to gain control over the vast quantities of waste.
