Deep in the heart of Accra, Ghana, lies Agbogbloshie—a 20-acre toxic graveyard where the world’s consumer electronics go to die. In this eye-opening documentary, we embed with the "Burner Boys," a group of young men who risk their lives for pennies, burning plastic off cables to extract precious copper. From the sprawling slum nicknamed "Sodom and Gomorrah" to the discovery of faulty electronics labeled with UK brand names, we uncover a global chain of waste that is poisoning both the environment and the people who call it home. It is a journey into a community built on the remains of our digital age, where survival comes at the ultimate cost of health.
