Dive into the underworld of urban waste, through Philadelphia’s relentless fight against illegal dumping through haunting, human vignettes. From sewers to surveillance footage, this powerful documentary exposes the hidden ties between trash, labor, and displacement. A raw, visually striking exploration of what we throw away, and who’s left to clean it up. You’ll never see litter the same way.
