So, 'After the Margin' is this raw documentary that really digs into the lives of people living near the landfill in Diamantina. It’s not your typical polished doc—there's a gritty, almost haunting authenticity to it. The pacing is slow, giving you time to absorb the heavy atmosphere. You see the daily struggles and the small moments of joy amid the garbage, which is both heartbreaking and beautiful in a way. The filmmakers have a knack for capturing real emotions without feeling exploitative. The locals are the real stars here; their stories hit hard, and the practical effects of their environment are just part of life for them. It’s distinct, definitely not your mainstream fare, but it resonates on several levels.
