With a massive, unrestricted salvage area, the Yellowknife dump is one of the last and largest open dumps in North America.

This documentary follows a group of passionate salvagers over five years as the dump evolves and eventually succumbs to the inexorable efforts of city bureaucrats to subject it to sensible regulations and controls.
