Welcome to Sodom
Florian Weigensamer
,
Christian Krönes
Agbogbloshie, Accra is the largest electronic waste dump in the world. About 6,000 women, men and children live and
work here. They call it “Sodom”. Every year about 250,000 tons of discarded computers, smartphones, air conditions tanks and
other devices from a far away electrified and digitalized world end up here. Illegally. Their personal inner voices allow
a deep insight into life at this place.
