Come enjoy a free screening of the sensational “Garbage Dreams” in Chicago on January 16th at 2 pm at the Chicago Cultural Center. This movie welcomes you to the world’s largest garbage village located on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt. The Zaballeen (Arabic for garbage people) recycle 80 percent of the trash they collect—far more than other recycling initiatives. But now a multi-national corporation threatens their livelihood. Follow three teenage boys born into the business who are forced to make choices that will impact the survival of their community.
