Waste Land Almega Projects

Filmed over nearly three years,
'WASTE LAND' follows renowned artist Vik Muniz
as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn
to his native Brazil and the world's largest garbage dump,
Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro.
There he photographs an eclectic band of
"catadores" - or self-designated pickers of recyclable materials.
Muniz's initial objective was to "paint"
the catadores with garbage.
However, his collaboration with these inspiring characters
as they recreate photographic images of themselves
out of garbage reveals both dignity and despair
as the catadores begin to re-imagine their lives.
Walker ('DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND', 'BLINDSIGHT')
has great access to the entire process and, in the end,
offers stirring evidence of the transformative
power of art and the alchemy of the human spirit.

Parkour

Le Parkour, primarily considered a philosophy, includes the physical practice of traversing elements in both urban and rural settings. The goal is to move from one point to another as quickly and efficiently as possible. This discipline was created in France, Sarcelles, in Smooth and Evry by David Belle, Sébastien Foucan, and the founding members of the Yamakasi. It is inspired by "the natural method of physical education" by Georges Hébert. It was then spread worldwide by films, television reports, and amateur videos on the Internet.

The term freerunning is sometimes used interchangeably with parkour. While parkour aims to enable the practitioner to be able to move quickly and efficiently past obstacles, freerunning has a greater emphasis on self-expression within the environment. Freerunning includes tricking moves such as aerial rotations and spins, while the purist definition of parkour founder David Belle would not consider these part of parkour because the moves are merely showy, not efficient, and do not help the participant to get from place to place. Although Sébastien Foucan co-founded parkour, his philosophy differed and so he is generally associated with freerunning (see below).

A practitioner of parkour is called a traceur if male, or traceuse if female (from the French for bullet).
