The Last Tourist

The documentary puts the tourism industry under examination. It was filmed in more than fifteen countries. It travels from Caribbean beaches to remote villages in Kenya. The account gives room to the people who work in the shadow of the industry. Those voices usually go unheard. Tourism is one of the largest industries in the world. The film shows its real conditions and its consequences. Travel is at a tipping point. The industry has come to sell amenities rather than connect people with places. Overtourism damages the environment, wildlife and vulnerable communities. Tourists mostly do this without meaning to. They consume the very thing they came to see. The documentary puts the modern tourist on trial. Experts and people working in conservation speak. The production openly takes a side and argues for responsible travel. Jane Goodall and Elizabeth Becker speak in the hundred minute documentary. It is a co-production of the Bahamas, Cambodia, Canada, India, Jamaica, Kenya and Thailand that Tyson Sadler finished in 2021.
