This was a very fascinating docu, but I can’t help wondering how many of these divers actually have the money to buy whatever they want within reason? Many claimed that the driving force behind this was an effort to reduce waste, help the environment, foster a sense of community/sharing, etc. But Daniel at 11:50 and the woman at 58:45 both said they started as a result of being poor. If either one were to find themselves suddenly flush with cash, would they still rummage through dumpsters at 1 in the morning? (Daniel might, he strikes me as the type.) What this docu doesn’t show is how many of these divers do it out of necessity vs out of principle. Still, very interesting, and while I don’t think I’ll ever do this myself because the consumer is very strong in me, I’ll recommend this doc to others. Posted 11/11/09 by Sarah E.
Is the movie available to show on my campus? I definitely think there would be interest. I am wanting to show it for free but if someone wants to contact me we can possibly work something out. Sarah E. |
