Billy Elliot, The Reader and The Hours director Stephen Daldry returns with Trash this winter, which looks like it’s bidding to be this year’s Slumdog Millionaire.
Now we can take a look at the movie as the first trailer for the movie has arrived.
Heres the synopsis: When two trash-picking boys from Rios slums find a wallet in amongst the daily detritus of their local dump, little do they imagine that their lives are about to change forever. But when the local police show up, offering a handsome reward for the wallets return, the boys, Rafael (RICKSON TEVEZ) and Gardo (LUIS EDUARDO), realise that what theyve found must be important. Teaming up with their friend Rato (GABRIEL WEINSTEIN), the trio begins an extraordinary adventure as they try to hang onto the wallet, evade the police, and uncover the secrets it contains.
Along the way, the boys will have to figure out friend from foe, as they piece together the story of the wallets owner José angelo (WAGNER MOURA) and realise they cant trust the police, led by the dangerous Frederico (SELTON MELLO). But a pair of American missionaries working in their favela the disillusioned Father Julliard (MARTIN SHEEN) and his young assistant Olivia (ROONEY MARA) might just have the power to knock on the right doors. Trash is directed by STEPHEN DALDRY and written by RICHARD CURTIS based on the book by ANDY MULLIGAN.
A January 30th 2015 release is set.
