Tuesday Video: Waste Land

Sorry for the slow posting of late - I’m returning from a debate tournament in Berkeley this week. In the meantime, check the trailer for the Oscar-nominated documentary Waste Land. It’s an amazing film. The central figures are Brazilian-born, Brooklyn-based artist Vik Muniz and the crew of catadores — garbage pickers — at the world’s largest landfill, Rio de Janeiro’s Jardim Gramacho. Check the trailer below.
