Description
A town built on a landfill. A community in need of hope. A girl with a dream. A man with a vision. An ingenious idea. The Recycled Orchestra, comprising of children from Cateura, Paraguay, playing instruments made from recycled trash, performs concerts all over the world to sold-out audiences. Here's the story of how it began.
