Director: Wayne Clark | Producer: Terry Sanchez
Focus Years: 2002 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
The Payatas dump site tragedy happened on July 10, 2000 in the Philippines. At 8:05am, a massive 50 foot wall of solid waste slid down and buried hundreds of shantytowns and an undetermined number of people. This is not just the story of what happened that day, but more about the prevalent internal and external migration that occurs in almost all underdeveloped countries. The film tries to explain why thousands of migrants from farming and rural communities flock to Manila to provide a "better" life for their families.
