Trashed: Two Films About Garbage

September 15, 2011

As a complement to this year's Bay Area Now program, YBCA screens two films about waste and the way it impacts our lives. Scrappers, showing Thursday, tells the story of two scavengers eking out a living salvaging trash from Chicago's dumpsters and Waste Land, playing Sunday, follows artist Vik Muniz to Brazil where he connects with pickers at the world's largest garbage dump.
