Muy cerca de El Cairo, pero invisible desde la ciudad, está Mokattam, un enorme asentamiento de zaballeen o recolectores de basura. Todo lo que la capital desecha es recogido por ellos y llevado a Mokattam, donde es separado, clasificado y reciclado. Una dinámica que narra este documental. (FILMAFFINITY)

When their community is suddenly faced with the globalization of their trade, each boy is forced to make choices that will impact his life and the future of his community.
