We often get sugar-coated “please save our earth†campaigns that really make us want to shut off the TV or put down the newspaper.
I can assure you this won't make you do that. 'Age of Stupid' is a step into the future that looks back at what we did, what we didn't do and what we should've done to save our planet.
The premise is a man in the future (2055) all alone on a desolate Earth looking back at video footage from 2008 wondering why we didn't save ourselves.
Definitely something to think about (pretty scary). Check out the trailer.
