SYNOPSIS:

​

The world's economy revolves around the production of waste, from consumerism that leads to a temporary use of the products, through Western civilization’s bulimic attitude towards food, down to the legal and the illegal garbage business.
"Monno Monnezza" (Rubbish World) is a kind of micro-documentary of what happens around a dumpster, there’s who takes and who throws. The movie is set in a bill of zero value issued by the State of Rubbish World.

​

L’economia del mondo gira intorno alla produzione di rifiuti, a partire dal consumismo che spinge ad un uso temporaneo dei prodotti, passando dall’atteggiamento bulimico nei confronti del cibo delle civiltà occidentali, fino ad arrivare al vero e proprio commercio, legale e illegale, della spazzatura.

“Monno Monnezza” è una sorta di micro-documentario di quello che accade intorno ad un cassonetto dei rifiuti, c’è chi butta e chi prende. Il filmato è inserito in una banconota di valore zero, emessa dallo Stato di Monno Monnezza.
