Waste Land Documentary Response

The most memorable part of the Waste Land documentary for me was the people themselves. It was very memorable to see the people go from day to day to the Landfill to collect recycle. Also, they made so little I don't know if I would be able to do that and be proud about it. From this I will take away the feeling that no matter what job I have it could still be worse.

I think it felt great for the people in the movie to have their jobs turned into something much larger than just picking up recycle. It must have given them a sense of pride, a sense of accomplishment, and a sense of fame. It definitely helped the people want to get out of the Landfill and want to work harder to make more money so they can get out.

I think I would feel good if I was the subject of a film. It definitely would make me feel like I am making a change in the world and my community. Maybe the academic aspect of my life would lend me to that kind of art. If anything that is what I excel at.
