Vidal Merma, an independent journalist, champions the voice of the indigenous K'ana Nation, a people whose wellbeing and natural resources suffer from the poisoning of aggressive mineral mining. With rivers reduced to dust, and the remaining water contaminated, the people of Espinar demand accountability, and an immediate end to the unsolicited practices destroying their home.

Followed by a Q+A session with Vidal Merma and Giorgio Ghiotti, moderator by Professor Claire Priest

Directed by Giorgio Ghiotti
