Write a short summary of what happens in the film

Globally, ocean garbage is a serious problem. 88%~95% of the ocean garbage is coming from the 10 rivers of Asia and Africa. The Mekong River is a transboundary river originating from China, passing through Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia and finally through Vietnam to the sea. Vietnam is the last stand of floating garbage from six countries before it goes to sea. However, The Vietnamese dumped garbage into the Mekong River and believed that the river becomes clean soon because it flows fast into the sea. The film is about a special boat struggling to collect floating waste from the Mekong River in Vietnam just before it enters the sea.

Cultural/Context information for the jury

The majority of environmental campaigns to protect the planet err on the other side inadvertently pollute the planet. It is a mistake of the organization to carry out clean-up activities in which the ship of the group for the environmental movement runs the fossil fuel, discharges oil residue in the sea, emits carbon into the air, or collects garbage by using disposable products. Howeveer, our key strategy in designing clean-up Mekong campaign and implementing them was to "find the ultimate eco-friendly way." Under this strategy, solar boat does not use just 1 gram of fossil fuel. Instead, only solar energy operates the boat and runs the conveyor belt to collect floating garbage. As a result, it emits nothing harm to the earth.

We visited the Mekong River several times to carry out on-site surveys and the campaign, and we could often see people throwing garbage that they had collected from floating houses and ships into the river. And it was also a common scene to bathe, wash the laundry and catch fish in such a polluted river. Also We talked to various people in the area about the garbage problem, with a large number of local residents thinking nothing of dumping garbage into the Mekong River. The reason was that, to surprise, the river was believed to be clean soon because the garbage dumped in the Mekong River flows into the sea.
