There are of course loads of films on Garbage Dumpyards, but the one I talk of, one of the few I have seen, is called Victims Of Garbage Dump, made by Plan India. It was just 10 minutes long and in Hindi. Nothing "artistically" great about it, but just matter-of-fact reporting, which is how documentaries should be anyway. I don't think it is available online.

Duh:P

Hey.TS
Nice, actually very nice... such moments reassure me of multiple things/ beliefs and emotions that sometimes seem to be slipping away between deadlines and train times.

@Me: Hey, don't you go all philosophical on me now...

2007-10-30T18:02:00.000+05:30

The saddest kind of existence I have seen ever has to be that of the ragpickers working, and living around the dump yard in North Delhi, on the way to Karnal.
The gravity of the situation was a hundred times more palpable on seeing them actually, than when I had seen a documentary film about them.

But then, what can we do besides giving them a rupee and, in this case, writing really long comments?

Good one this, but you must post more often jee.

and personally, i think that 'The Monk...' was the most crappy book I've ever come across... I managed to read first 3 chapters.. Which was A LOT!!
This book was different... Its made of small easy to follow chapters and however I hate the author.. It really helped me a couple of times to follow what was written there..
Up to you :)

@J': The guy who wrote 'The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari'? I don't fancy him.

@Anand: Ha ha, true sir, very true.

@Me: The point is, are we willing to take the risk?
