剧情简介
我们每个人一生中，要在马桶上度过整整三年时光。可对于生活中如此必需的一部分，我们却往往羞于谈论。这部纪录片打破这种心态，揭示马桶在人类文化中的角色，梳理英国乃至世界范围内厕所的社会发展史，同时探讨诸多与厕所相关的文化禁忌。
纪录片从西班牙梅里达现存最古老的罗马厕所开始，带领观众环游世界 —— 从英国到中国、日本、孟加拉国，探访各式各样的厕所：有的意义深远，有的精美别致；有的实用便利，有的状况堪忧，还有的堪称离奇古怪。
本次旅程由威尔士诗人、主持人伊弗・阿普・格林担任向导。他平易近人，对厕所、厕所历史及其数百年来的演变，乃至现代马桶设计的发展都抱有极大热情。
最后，影片还将展望未来，为我们当下面临的全球公共卫生问题，探寻可行的解决之道。
We each spend three years of our lives on the toilet, but how happy are we talking about this essential part of our lives? This film challenges that mindset by uncovering its role in our culture and exploring the social history of the toilet in Britain and abroad – as well as exploring many of our cultural toilet taboos. Starting in Merida, Spain with some of the the earliest surviving Roman toilets, we journey around the world – from the UK to China, Japan and Bangladesh – visiting toilets, ranging from the historically significant to the beautiful, from the functional and sometimes not-so-functional to the downright bizarre. Leading the journey is Everyman figure, Welsh poet and presenter Ifor ap Glyn, who has a passionate interest in the toilet, its history and how it has evolved over the centuries, right up to the development of the current design. Finally, there’s a glimpse of the future and a possible solution to the global sanitation issues we now face.
