Buhay Pagpag sa 'Tunay na Buhay'

"PAGPAG" Airing date: December 23, 2011

 

While most people look down on garbage as useless things, Cristy Peñacosa's family sees them as a wellspring of hope for their otherwise empty stomachs.

 

Watch one of GMA 7's most moving documentaries in Tunay Na Buhay's episode on "Pagpag." Join host Rhea Santos as she accompanies Cristy and her family in scouring the garbage bins of the metro in search for their next meal. These leftover foods from garbage bins or "pagpag" were then cooked, eaten and sometimes sold to other people.

 

Join a family's fight to stave off hunger in GMA 7's Tunay Na Buhay, Friday night, after Saksi.
