Description 
This film documents a plastic recycling facility in a small town dedicated to the business of processing plastic waste. It tells a heart-breaking story about an unschooled 11-year-old girl Yi-Jie, she’s a truly global child who learns the world through the United Nations of Wastes while working with her parents in a recycle workshop thousand miles away from their mountain village home town, while dreaming of going to school. Kun, the ambitious boss of the workshop, who works so hard and dreaming of a better life. Through the story of these two families, the film explores how these wastes recycled by the bare hands of families, and discovers their dilemma and choices of suffering irreversible damages on life just to make a living.
