ABC comedian Wendy Harmer brings together a colourful and insightful
documentary on why people collect "stuff". Bringing forth a variety
of different occupations from prisoners, priests, sociologists and
real Australians, she delves into this world wide phenomena of why
people accumulate materialistic possessions with some going to
extreme lengths such as hoarding.
Through stories and interviews
plus Harmer's own unique style of humour, this documentary is quite
thoughtful and assists in explaining this phenomena to the viewer
with most of us "humans" collecting something or another at one part
of our lives.
Revolving around the famous analogy of one's man junk
is another man's treasure is quite true in this documentary and goes
into the sociological and psychological understanding of this
"problem" that some believe exists in this strange and wonderful
world.
Highly
Recommend!
