Slavoj Žižek stands in a dumpster park. He says, “When you go to the toilet, shit disappears. You flush it.” But in reality, shit doesn’t just disappear. Neither does our waste disappear. We need to rethink “ecology” and learn to coexist with what we don’t want to see or smell.

We follow three consultants who view the world through brown glasses. They look back at history in a TED talk (Everything is Digest!), they end up in an emergency meeting and get lost in a lifeless poop desert.
With humor, gamesmanship and seriousness, they recount the Inconvenient Truth of the intestinal tract, personal embarrassment and global catastrophe. They seek a hopeful, new imagination about how we can deal with our shit.
