What does the afterlife hold? Missing letters from 1934; discarded goods on New York City curbs; personal treasures in the ashes of a wildfire; endangered reptiles hiding in plain sight…countless beings, objects, and memories are salvaged and given new meaning. Every species is preserved in the cloud as pixels and code - could the simulation of our lives save us from extinction?
A film about Anna Sacks, a dumpster diver in New York City who has recently found viral social media fame for calling out wasteful corporate practices. Meanwhile, the physical build-up of the trash she collects, and the anxiety of the never-ending cycles of waste are weighing her down and keeping her from her goals.
