SYNOPSIS

​

X Trillion follows the journey of 14 women as they sail a gruelling 3000 miles across the North Pacific Ocean to one of the most remote places on Earth, but also the location of the densest accumulation of ocean plastic - the North Pacific Gyre, or the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. 

​

A crew of scientists to packaging designers, engineers, teachers, artists and more, they carry out cutting edge research into the impacts of plastics and microplastics both on the natural world and on human health, and explore the practical and emotional responses to one of the biggest global challenges of our time. 

​

This is a story of hope, filled with life, magic and a call to action that burns with optimism.
