It’s stuck under our desks, cemented to our pavements, and parked in billions of mouths every single day, yet almost no one realizes we’re chewing on synthetic plastic and spitting out a toxic environmental disaster.

Directed by investigative filmmaker Andrew Nisker, Dark Side of the Chew takes a sharp, irreverent, and thoroughly jaw-dropping look at the world’s second most common form of litter: chewing gum. Tracing the habit from ancient tree-sap traditions to today’s petroleum-based bubble-gum conglomerates, the film uncovers the massive clean-up costs, health questions, and ecological toll of an overlooked, multi-billion-pound addiction that is literally gumming up the planet.

If you’re organising a campus awareness night, a clean-streets campaign, an eco-film screening, or a community sustainability forum, this screening pack delivers all the tools you need to pop the bubble on single-use habits; without leaving a sour taste in your audience’s mouth.
