She opted for trial in closed court.
I shouted and slammed the door.

:53:07
They're not through
talking about this episode,

: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

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

:53:58
''Oh my God, I can't eat this!
:54:01

It's easy
:54:07

1 00% trash for 1 0 years now...

:54:15
for 1 0 or 1 5 years,
:54:17
I've never been ill.
:54:20
- You don't have a job?
- I do.

:54:22
I have a job, a salary,
a social security number.

:54:27
So you are not forced to do that?
:54:29
Absolutely not.
:54:32
Salvaging is a matter
of ethics for me,

:54:36
because I find it
utterly unacceptable to see

:54:39
all this waste on the streets.
:54:42
That proves we're heading for
disasters, like the Erika oil spill.
