This public service commercial to “clean up new york” was directed by David Lynch and photographed by Frederick Elmes. It has all the tell tale creepy genius that only Lynch can muster.

Riots in Naples, Jan 08
Trash collection has been a problem in Naples for years. A “waste disposal state of emergency” was first declared in 1994, and the piles of trash were threatening public health last summer. A massive incinerator was meant to open at the end of 2007, but it’s not yet ready. Critics blame corruption, political foot-dragging and a mafia-run system of illegal industrial dumps for the ongoing trouble.
- An estimated 2,000 tons of garbage was lying in the streets
- Residents torched the piles of garbage in protest starting on January 1, 2008
- Prime Minister Romano Prodi promised a “radical” solution, but residents are still waiting
