Garbage, Trash, Waste and Other Detritus
“Kuzu” by Iimura Takahiko
‘Iimura films the cadavers of daily objects (junk) and animals without heads, cats, dogs or birds.

Pee .. Beer .. Recycle

Goodbye to Garbage
The ominous opening music implies a problem at least equivalent to a serial killer loose in the neighborhood. But it's only some spilled coffee grounds.
