Manolo Recycles: The Lord of The Trolleys

Spain
2004, 59min.

Dir./Dir. of Phot./Edit: Manuel Gonzalez, Compos.: Elbicho.

Manolo is homeless. He lives on the streets of Madrid, where he makes a living selling what other people throw away. Manolo moves about with supermarket trolleys, sometimes as many as eight, all full of gear ready to sell. It is hard work, but he seems happy and always has a smile and a kind word for everybody. The camera follows Manolo to show his way of life, unveiling the reasons why he ended up on the street.
