The Poorest of the poor - there are hundreds and thousands of men, women and children living and working at the Payatas, the largest garbage dumpsite in Metro Manila in the Philippines. When a convoy of trucks filled with solid wastes arrives at the site, young children fiercely compete for the spots on the trucks to scavenge "valuable" wastes.
