Carts of Darkness (2008)
In the picture-postcard community of North Vancouver, filmmaker Murray Siple follows men who have turned bottle-picking, their primary source of income, into the extreme sport of shopping cart racing. Enduring hardships from everyday life on the streets of Vancouver, this sub-culture depicts street life as much more than stereotypes portrayed in mainstream media. The films takes a deep look into the lives of the men who race carts, the adversity they face, and the appeal of cart racing despite the risk.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
