So, '废物故事' from 2022 is this intriguing documentary that really digs into the lives of people who navigate the discarded and overlooked in society. It's shot with a raw, almost gritty aesthetic that complements the subject matter well. You can feel the pacing is intentional; it gives you time to soak in the atmosphere and the stories being told. The performances, if you can call them that—since it’s more of a fly-on-the-wall style—are deeply authentic. The themes of waste and societal neglect resonate throughout the film. What’s striking is how it manages to feel both heavy and reflective while also highlighting resilience. It definitely leaves an impression, not one you forget easily.
