Documentary Film Screening: Nanoplastics. Threat to Life.

is a groundbreaking scientific investigation into one of the most urgent environmental and public health challenges of our time: the invisible crisis of micro- and nanoplastic pollution.

This documentary is the result of a comprehensive scientific investigation that reveals one of the most urgent environmental and public health challenges of the 21st century: micro and nanoplastic pollution, and presents it in an accessible popular science format.
Plastic symbolizes technological progress: lightweight, durable, and nearly everlasting. But humanity has overlooked something critically important – the very material created to improve our lives has begun to endanger them.
Today, society vastly underestimates the real scale of the threat posed by plastic pollution. The plastic crisis is no longer limited to landfills or floating garbage patches in the world’s oceans. The true catastrophe is unfolding on a microscopic level: nanoplastics can penetrate biological barriers and accumulate within living organisms, including humans.
This documentary brings together cutting-edge scientific data and insights from leading experts. It examines how micro- and nanoplastics disrupt ecosystems, impact human health, and why understanding the magnitude of this threat is essential for the future of our planet.
Recent studies show that micro- and nanoplastics can accumulate and retain electrostatic charges for long periods of time. In this film, this property is examined as a key factor in their destructive effects – an angle rarely explored before. This perspective offers a new way to understand the dangers of plastics through the lens of their electrostatic activity.
The film presents scientific findings on the scale and consequences of micro- and nanoplastic contamination, including:
• Detection of plastic particles in air, water, food, and the human body – regardless of region.
• Harmful effects of micro- and nanoplastics on human health, such as:
– inflammation, DNA damage, and mutations,
– endocrine disruption,
– accelerated cellular aging,
– cognitive impairment,
– erectile dysfunction, infertility,
– increased rates of cancer;
– impacts on children beginning in the prenatal stage and continuing after birth.
• The influence of micro- and nanoplastics on the climate. Plastic particles contribute to accelerated ocean warming, atmospheric anomalies, and disruptions to the hydrological cycle.
It is crucial to understand that simply abandoning plastic today is no longer enough to solve this global problem, as micro- and nanoplastics have already become an integral part of the biosphere, and of the human body itself.
