for these youths
who want to be free of all rules.

:52:05
We only stole trash.
:52:07
The aim isn't to fine them
but to remind them of the law.

:52:13
They all played their part,
applying their own logic.

:52:17
The kids said
what they were supposed to.

:52:19
We filmed them with their dogs.
It was picturesque.

:52:23
I'm not that antisocial.
:52:27
- May I ask you how old you are?
- 22.

:52:29
Their beauty is poignant when you
realize that, for whatever reason,

:52:34
they get most of their food
from trash cans.

:52:38
In court, I was told
:52:40
it was a dialogue of the deaf,
but not of the dumb.

:52:44
They seized the chance

:52:50
We said she was out of her mind,
and she would go: Write it down!

I shouted and slammed the door.

:53:07

:53:11
and I'm not through thinking
about it in my hotel room.

:53:15
We filmed and continue to film
people who hang around trash cans.

:53:19
They have various reasons
for doing so.

:53:22
Each experiences it differently.
:53:27
- Hi!
- Here he is!

:53:28
How are you?
:53:30
Sit down, there's coffee for you.
:53:34
We had been told: '' He wears
:53:36
rubber boots.
He salvages everything''.

:53:39
Yes, I live almost 1 00%
on things from the trash.

:53:47
Everybody, rich or poor,
:53:49
throws food away. Why?
:53:51

:53:54
If we're past the sell-by date
of a yogurt, people go:

:53:58
''Oh my God, I can't eat this!
