Fewer workers crowd the dump in the evening. Animals take advantage of the opportunity to scavenge for food.
A woman with her toddlers in tow walks by a man who lies amidst the garbage. Beside him are bottles of poison chemicals. Nearby, a drug house supplies addicts with glue and cheap alcohol. The cement wall surrounding the dump obscures the view from passers by.
Scavengers wait expectantly as garbage is unloaded from a truck.
