"Marína of the Zabbaleen" is a cinematic documentary feature film that explores the world of seven-year-old Marína in the Muqqattam garbage recycling village in Cairo, Egypt. An impressionistic portrait of childhood and family, the film also tells the story of the resourceful Zabbaleen, a Coptic Christian community of recyclers whose entrepreneurial waste management system produces one of the highest recycling rates in the world. No people has felt the ramifications of the Swine Influenza pandemic more acutely than the Zabbaleen, whose way of life was devastated by the government-ordered eradication of the country's pig population in the spring of 2009.
