I love this film!!! This movie is a jem! A very rare personal movie, told from the voices of young men.

Al Gore has good taste in movies! Al Gore chose "Garbage Dreams" as the winner of this year Reel Current Award. Former Vice President says,"'Garbage Dreams' is a moving story of young men searching for a ways to eke out a living for their families and facing tough choices as they try to do the right thing for the planet. Mai Iskander guides us into a 'garbage village,' a place so different from our own, and yet the choices they face there are so hauntingly familiar. Ultimately, 'Garbage Dreams' makes a compelling case that modernization does not always equal progress."

The Zaballeen community's livelihood is in jeopardy and this film has finally given them a voice.
