Abstract/Summary

Abot Kamay is a documentary film that features Maricon Panganiban, a goal-driven scholar of Cavite Institute, who finishes her secondary education through the scholarship program called WISHCRAFT (We Integrate Scholarship with the Collection of Recyclables and Frequently-generated Trash). The documentary shows how Maricon, coming from a low-income earner family, benefits from the scholarship opportunity that allows her to find her school fees in exchange of frequently generated trash. We also unfold the subject's different daily activities such as going to school, being with her family and friends collecting of recyclable materials from every household in her community. Through this documentary, the audience will be able to realize that recyclable materials are not just mere garbage because these may be the keys to the achievement of one's goal to finish her education.
