Trashman is a personal exploration of the filmmaker’s neighborhood trash pollution problem and what community activists in Ward 8 Washington, D.C. are doing to solve this issue. Trashman spotlights Ward 8 Woods, a Washington, D.C. based non-profit organization and their dedicated staff and volunteers as they restore woodlands and clean city streets filled with trash. Trashman compares the stark differences between the maintenance of Rock Creek Park located in a wealthier section of Washington, D.C. to parklands in Ward 8, a less affluent area of the city. Trashman dives into whether environmental issues are important in Ward 8 and who’s responsible for the filmmaker’s neighborhood trash pollution problem.
