Inspiring documentary

I am a huge Megadeth fan and when I saw them in the synopsis of the film, I knew I had to go see it.

The doc starts out slow, explaining the origin of a man who came to a city in south America to figure out their waste problem. when this plan fell thorough he stayed to teach the children how to play music. The doc gets real interesting when this man realizes he that they're not enough interments to go around for these kids. Then he meets a man who has the skills to create the interments needed for these kids out of garbage. The kids become good enough to use the orchestra to see the world outside of their small area and attract the eye of Megadeth bassist, Dave Ellefson.

The documentary is amazing because it's on an amazing story about how a community coming together and using what they got to climb of the ladder. Such an inspiration.
