This week’s video is by documentary filmmaker Gary Hustwit and director Jessica Edwards. The Landfill is a short (three minute) film about the often overlooked business of dealing with the things we no longer want to deal with. In its short run-time, The Landfill focuses on how some waste items can be used as a resource through the process of creating landfill gas. The film is well shot and edited, and the overall message about managing our wasteful habits is loud and clear.
