Background:
In the “Author’s Note” of Behind the Beautiful Forevers, Katherine Boo discusses the conditions in the undercities of India that make apathy, selfishness, and even outright disregard for life as common as the garbage littering the slums, and asks, “How does that happen? How—to use Abdul’s formulation—do children intent on being ice become water?” (254). In other words, how do we lose our ethics, our morals, our humanity? And as we see the various individuals in Annawadi confront the challenges of the slum and rise to meet them in varying ways, ways that exaggerate and perhaps illuminate the choices people make and why they make them, we marvel with Boo that “some people are good, and that many try to be” (254). Yet it is so easy to gaze from across the globe at others and ponder the choices they make, while leaving our own decisions and lives unexamined. This is never truer than with the current fast fashion industry that everyone is a part of. If you now own, or ever have owned, a piece of clothing that you did not stitch, from material you did not make, from fibers you did not grow, you are part of the fashion industry, for better or worse. “So, what is wrong with that?” you may ask. And the answer would be, “Nothing,” unless you began to look more deeply into the true cost of the global fashion industry.Director of The True Cost, Andrew Morgan, allows us to do just that, to peek behind the curtain of the runway, the glossy ads of the clothing companies, and the promises of our apparel, and see the workers, the land, the water, and even our values damaged by that $5 shirt that was in one day and out the next. And in the film, we also see that familiar judgment being passed from one group to the next, never quite landing on a single party who will take responsibility for being part of the cause or part of the solution for this destruction.
