Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Trash (2015)

Brazilian street kid finds a wallet at the dump  and shares his discovery with a couple of friends. There's some cash, but there is also a letter for a political prisoner and a code to be cracked. When the police show up, the boys can be sure that this wallet is more valuable than the cash inside. The boys' only allies are a priest and teacher, missionaries in their community.

Honestly, I didn't follow the exact story of what was going on with that wallet and the secrets it contained. But I was still entertained by the sheer life force of the kids and their will to thwart the powers that be in the name of "right."
