Waste Land

documentary

A conceptual photographer goes to a massive dump in Brazil, shoots a half dozen of the pickers in imaginative settings and changes their lives...some.

This turned out to be a win-win project...Muniz got to be santa and the subjects got the money from the sale of the photos at Sothebys. Moving and inspiring story about giving back plus an interesting look at people at the very bottom, how they actually live, rationalize their plight and support each other.
