Valley Waste Resource Management invites you to join us for the screening of the 2024 Canadian documentary "This Film is Garbage!" as part of Waste Reduction Week.
Andrew Nisker is back with a new documentary, This Film is Garbage! Is the future greener—or bleaker—than before? Nisker is determined to find out. In this film, he challenges the Masons, a typical Canadian family of four to keep their trash for 3 months. Andrew compares this family’s trash to a couple living in a condo in the heart of Toronto - his sister-in-law Alexandra and her fiancé Aizaz. Garbage has a way of making people unhappy, which is one of the reasons it’s dumped out of sight—in lakes and rivers and overseas. Nisker investigates the story of Canada’s garbage and since this country produces more of it than any other country in the world. He speaks with a variety of experts to see if progress has been made. Traveling across Canada and the UK, he turns up little known and innovative solutions to our garbage crisis. From the textile industry, to food waste, to packaging and plumbing, disruptors are at work in the fight against garbage. The statistics are dire but Nisker finds ingenuity, hope and even humour in this trashy tale.
