This video shows
audiences how to declare their independence from the epidemic of
rampant consumerism and materialism ailing Americans and our
environment by adopting the practices of simple living. Like AFFLUENZA,
this sequel uses expert commentary, thought-provoking vignettes and
humor to show how people can reduce their consumption and simplify
their lives. With stories of real people from Seattle to the
Netherlands who have altered their lifestyles and re-discovered the joy
of living, ESCAPE FROM AFFLUENZA offers the antidote to debt, stress,
time-pressure and possession-overload.
Awards:
Honorable Mention,

Reviews:
"This video - brings
thoughtfulness and humor, down-to-earth practicality and visionary
hopes to the work of recovery. If you are in the early stages of
wanting to live differently, watch ESCAPE FROM AFFLUENZA. You'll find
you have company, and you'll have an idea what to do next." Earthlight
"It is notable that both films are upbeat (even while introducing lots
of worrisome information) because of their light touch, and the way
they introduce us to lots of people who are making many changes in
their lives. They avoid a grim this-is-the-only-way-to-live legalism."
