　　The educational film Shop Til You Drop：The Crisis of Consumerism is a look into the machinery of American consumerism and advertising.Though there seems to be no end in sight to our appetite for overconsumption，it documents an end to the capacity of our planet，with its limited resources to support that appetite.To set the stage，we hear a recitation by Juliet Shor，author of Born to Buy—all the objects in a typical middle class home.

　　The first half of the film focuses on the psychological effects of consumerism：how the media and advertisers direct us and how their techniques control our desires，making us believe that we need much more than we actually do.
