Got Docs? Garbage Dreams
December 11, 2009Our documentary feature this week is Garbage Dreams, directed by Mai Iskander, a film that tells the story of the people who recycle an impressive 80 percent of Cairo's garbage. The documentary follows several teenage boys as they figure out their futures, while multinational garbage corporations threaten their livelihood.Media Panel, Garbage Dreams and Cartoons in Conflict
