Original title: Moest väljas

2015 · 59 min · Documentary

We live in an era of global consumption, with consumption levels constantly rising. It’s no secret that the fashion industry is at the forefront of this trend. Thousands of factories in developing countries produce not only clothing for major corporations but also tonnes of toxic waste.

Fashion designer Reet Aus has an ambitious plan to change the world. She has realised that the only way to fight the fashion industry is from within.

The documentary Out of Fashion follows Reet Aus’s journey from Tallinn through the fashion capitals of Europe and the cotton plantations of South America to the epicentre of mass production in Bangladesh.

The documentary was filmed between 2009 and 2014.
