Storyline

Technology is always present in our lives. In many cases, it improves our lives, but we often are not able to manage it, especially when it reaches the end of its life. This issue can create serious imbalances that affect our planet. The documentary Materia Viva addresses this concept to open up and tackle a series of environmental issues: recycling and resource management, the circular economy, and topics like climate change and climate neutrality
