"WELCOME TO SODOM - Your smartphone is already here" illuminates the living conditions of the people on Europe's largest garbage dump, one of the most toxic places in the world in Ghana.
"Sodom" is the name given to the part of the Ghanaian capital Accra, which only those who absolutely have to enter: The landfill of Agbogbloshie is the final destination for smartphones, computers, monitors and other electronic waste from Europe, unless they are disposed of properly. Around 250.000 tons of it come here year after year. In an illegal way.
The multiple award-winning Austrian documentary WELCOME TO SODOM by Florian Weigensamer & Christian Krönes allows viewers to look behind the scenes of Europe's largest garbage dump in the middle of Africa.
