This documentary film is the beginning of a global campaign by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to raise awareness of the use of mercury in Artisanal Small Gold Mines around the world. Arrowhead traveled across the globe to film in Vietnam, the Philippines, Switzerland, Indonesia, Columbia, and Peru to take a hard look at how mining one of our most valuable commodities is poisoning our water, our air, our food, and ultimately, us. Screened in Geneva in September 2017 at the GEF’s Minamata Convention on Mercury COP1, the film shows us the people whose livelihoods depends on gold mining and the difficulty in affecting change to Make Mercury History.
