The story of rebirth in the confines of poverty!
'Tin City Voices' is the story of survival in a third world slum. Filmmaker Elijah Marchand explores a shantytown in Georgetown, Guyana. We discover an abused woman, a pregnant mother, and a man struggling to find redemption for his violent life. Their lives do not intersect but run parallel. Through a stirring story about rebirth and forgiveness amongst despair and violence, we uncover the psychological environment that confines those in the ghetto.

These are prostitutes and drug addicts who live in the slum. They need to get a job and stop making children like pigs. They also need to educate themselves while they're at it.

I suggest this fool clean up the US and Canada before condemning Guyana. How many prostitutes and drug addicts and homeless reside in US and cA?

Poverty in Guyana is acute in some groups due to several reasons, yes corruption do play a role, but not the main driver. The main reason, in the end Guyana is a poor nation with very few strategic industries. A nation where 35% want to be subsidize by the rest and are willing to loot, burn, kill and destroy to get their way.
Recently we saw their leaders blocked the Hydro project, a project which would have transformed the nation's fortunes and lift all boats. However, they prefer to wallow in their self-made despair and rant about the "ruling class" and their "clannishness".

In the end, the no-vote of the PNC killed the project, not the AFC. Sithe was more concerned with no PNC backing.

If the PPP had the majority(which will happen again) and they had this legislation passed, what you think would have happened? It would have been: "Get the matches, it's time to show who we are. Burn anything that can burn. Rob and kill any Indian who comes your way.

Tell APNU to replace them to Buxton, Agricola and Linden and give them everything free. And you, stinger, should take two drug addict from Guyana slum and give them comfort in your home and feed them crack every day.
