Sinopsis(1)
El artista plástico brasileño Vik Muniz llevó a cabo un largo viaje, desde su hogar en Brooklyn hasta Brasil, para encontrar Jardim Gramacho, el tiradero de basura más grande del mundo donde realizó retratos, con material reciclado, de una singular banda de pepenadores. La cinta muestra el poder transformador del arte y la alquimia del espíritu humano. (Morelia International Film Festival)

After finishing watching Waste Land, I took the box with the chicken bones next to the computer, an empty bottle of Coke, and a plastic bag and threw it all in one bin, which I then took to the mixed waste in our backyard. This is clear evidence that the document had failed in its purpose. Otherwise, this piece impresses as much as it can with the quality of the means by which it was made, but otherwise it is extremely melodramatic, embarrassingly adoring of the main actor, and aimed at a new age bourgeois audience with the naive notion that modern art has value because it can change established practices. If I subscribed to this theory (i.e. the combination of a certain aesthetic with an attempt at social transformation), the atomic bomb in Hiroshima is the greatest work in the field of modern art.
