This is a documentary film that shocked my soul.
The three-year production process tells how people working in the largest domestic waste disposal plant in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, think about their work and how they live, and how the artist Vik uses his efforts and works to let the world pay attention to them and what they do in their lives. Change.
The shock of these people is that they are very poor financially, but very rich in spirit, because they know "99 is not 100 and that 1 bottle matters", they don't think of themselves as "a picker of garbage" but "A picker of recyclable materials".
In my eyes, they are environmental protection guards. They set up an organization to call on the government to pay attention to waste sorting. If the people who make these household garbage perform preliminary classification when dumping the garbage, they don’t need to laboriously search for recyclable materials in the smelly garbage “mountain”, so that their health and working environment can get it. ensure. Their children can get better education and serve the society without doing the same job as them.
Have our Chinese garbage treatment plants received social attention? Are the rights of workers guaranteed?
I dare not think about it... Maybe a documentary is brewing.
