Bliss in space in the movie, future space technology is very advanced, wealthy people emigrated to the man-made universe city, poor people living in garbage piled on Earth. In this setting, the Director is in fact alludes to the reality of human existence.

Developed countries consume a large amount of electronic products every year. Study on technology of recycling States, but in many cases, e-waste is exported to foreign countries, especially the less developed countries. Abobuluoxi Africa Ghana (Agbogbloshie) is the world's second largest electronic garbage dump, is one of the most polluted areas in the world. Australia producer David Fedele abobuluoxi for three months, the impression quite dark.

" 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, here on the incineration of waste electronic products, clear plastic, gets a small amount and sales of metal can be recycled ," he said to the Fastcoexist website, " there's always under the toxic black smoke, unthinkable, and it never stops . ”

Ghana imported from abroad 215,000 tons of electronic waste every year, most of them from Europe, and most of these spam abobuluoxi. Trash metal (mostly copper and aluminium) are fetched and then discarded the rest of them, so that the pollution is getting worse in this area.

Fedele said the work here is very organized. "Master" every day bring new garbage, and then let the teams (each team having four to five children) burned. By 4 o'clock in the afternoon they went to buyers looking to purchase metal. These buyers are Lebanon people. Recycled metals will be exporting again.

David Fedele there mainly to shoot documentaries. He said that the reality is more complex. Abobuluoxi is indeed the victim of modern consumerism, also reflect irresponsibility in the developed world, however, some spam from Ghana (129,000 tons of trash generated each year) or in other African countries, and helps local people to make ends meet after being deemed too. In the junkyard of the livelihoods of people, most of them from Northern Ghana, where agriculture is not well developed, and the lack of other employment opportunities.

24小时都在焚烧废旧电子产品的地方...

在电影《极乐空间》中，未来的空间技术已经非常发达，富有的人移民到了人造的宇宙都市，贫穷的人则居住在垃圾堆满的地球上。通过这种设定，导演其实是在影射现实的人类生存状况。

发达国家每年都要消耗大量的电子产品。虽然各国都有回收利用技术的研究，但在许多情况下，电子垃圾都会出口到国外，特别是欠发达国家。非洲加纳的阿博布罗西（Agbogbloshie）是全球第二大电子垃圾场，也是全球污染最严重的地区之一。澳大利亚制片人David Fedele在阿博布罗西的三个月里，对此感受颇深。

“每天24小时，每周7天，这里都在焚烧废旧的电子产品，清除掉塑料，获取少量可以回收和销售的金属，”他对Fastcoexist网站说，“这里永远在有毒的黑烟下，味道难以想象，而且永不停歇。”

加纳每年从国外进口21万5千吨电子垃圾，多数来自欧洲，而这些垃圾大多数在阿博布罗西处理。人们把垃圾中的金属（多是铜和铝）提取出来后，然后把剩下的东西抛弃掉，使这片地区的污染越来越严重。

Fedele说，这里的工作是很有组织的。“主人”们每天带来新的垃圾，然后让团队（每个团队有四至五个孩子）做焚烧。到了下午4点，他们去寻找购买金属的买家。这些买家多是黎巴嫩人。回收的金属会再次出口。

David Fedele到那里的主要是拍摄纪录片。他说，现实情况比较复杂。阿博布罗西的确是现代消费主义的牺牲品，也能反映出发达国家的不负责任，但是，有些垃圾来自加纳（每年产生12万9千吨垃圾）或其他非洲国家，而且，这里的垃圾场也有助于本地人维持生计。在垃圾场讨生计的人，多数来自加纳北部，那里的农业并不发达，而且缺乏其他的工作机会。
