Weavers Way Co-op is committed to inspiring meaningful dialogue among our members and in the community-at-large on topics that affect us all. This month's FREE documentary film screening, in the Little Theater at Mt. Airy Read & Eat, is a deeply moving testament to human resilience and creativity:

According to the Los Angeles Times:

"That a beautiful film could be set in the world's largest garbage dump sounds like an oxymoron, but acclaimed documentarian Lucy Walker has pulled off that feat in "Waste Land." She follows renowned Brooklyn-based, Brazil-born artist Vik Muniz on an ambitious project: going to Jardim Gramacho, a vast landfill established in 1970 north of Rio de Janeiro, photographing its catadores, pickers of recyclable materials, and then collaborating with them in transforming these photos into portraits created with recyclable materials. His purpose is to inspire his pickers to see themselves in a new way and even to re-imagine their lives."
