Reviews

Garbage Warrior is, in the end, a fitting tribute to a free spirit and a valuable citizen.

Philip Marchand, Toronto Star

Garbage Warrior was filmed over three years in the U.S., India and Mexico, and it's a terrific introduction not only to Reynolds' work, but to the extraordinary political and economic hurdles facing anyone who hopes to make positive change.
