Filmed over four
years, GARBAGE
DREAMS follows three
teenage boys born
into the trash trade
and growing up in
the world's largest
garbage village, on
the outskirts of
Cairo. It is the
home to 60,000
Zaballeen, Arabic
for "garbage
people." Far ahead
of any modern
"Green" initiatives,
the Zaballeen
survive by recycling
80 percent of the
garbage they
collect. Face to
face with an
uncertain future
amidst encroaching
multinational
corporations who
seek to "modernize"
their trade, each of
the teenage boys is
forced to make
choices that will
impact his future
and the survival of
his community.
