Synopsis:
Rapidly expanding cities, rising affluence, inadequate resources and almost total lack of “garbage literacy” amongst the citizenry has lead to a garbage crisis of monstrous proportions. Garbage workers include the drainage cleaners, public urinal cleaners, street sweepers and those who deal with unclaimed corpses and animal bodies. The film explores health, social, and economic issues faced by the garbage workers by juxtaposing citizens, administrators, politicians, labor leaders and the "Garbage soldiers"; and lets the viewers draw their own conclusions. This film truly belongs to the workers and advocates development that is human-centric, equitable and just.
