A Documentary about illegal gold business in West Africa. What does it mean for residents of a small town in Ghana to live on top of a huge gold deposit?
As a young development worker the narrator experienced a gold rush in a small town in Ghana. Some years later he returns to find out what the gold really means for residents of this town. On his journey he meets old friends, arrives at places of destruction and learns about a dangerous magnetism
between people and gold. In the small town a bloody conflict broke out between local police and gold miners. Who are profiteers and who are victims in this hunt for glittering stones?

Honestly I have many feelings about this video: 1 I'm sick of our own people extorting each other to white people. This was a set up, and I hate that the producer used the friends of this guy to manipulate him into doing the interview. He trusted the fake investor, brought you around his family and their children, just to unturn be set up. Not right! My next feeling is people do what must be done to survive. They just want to live a happy life and take care of themselves. I would have preferred efforts of alternatives to work is work more sustainable. Figuring out ways to get his gold without harming the environment is a much better way to help the people and the land. These are not bad people, their good people, who need better opportunities. While I hate what is happening to the water, I believe finding an alternative, sustainable way of doing the work will benefit all parties. I pray this guy and his friends are safe, free and unharmed, due to being extorted by his own people. The tactics of how you got this video done was horrible and reminds me of the slave trade. I'm so disappointed.

What do you mean, to white people??? Last I checked, for ALL of human history, all humans, all races, and all cultures, especially all people today, want and will acquire gold. Mining doesnt harm the environment, in spite of what eco nuts lie to people about. Gold mining = jobs and money for people. Gold literally IS money ffs!

Little knowledge is very dangerous in the sense that the environment degradation is taking place.,rivers poisoning and health hazardous. It would be much better if they had planted some seeds, use the water in the river to water their plants or food is mor valuable than gold

see that's why we don't want the subsaharans migrating to our land, they have the most beautiful and richest lands in the world, they should do something about them, like we did with ours without their ressources... in Morocco we only have phosphate, tourism and a bit of industry, nothing else... and we don't migrate massively to the subsaharan countries right ? The only people going there are businessmen, workers/benevols of NPO's, and officials... do the same, don't come to our countries MASSIVELY, don't come if you're not a businessman, or an official... that's a question of respect, when we go to your countries, we respect you, do the same... and start to work hard for a better future, you have no excuse, because again, your lands are the best, I'd gladly trade Morocco for Ghana or Ivory Coast, anytime I swear
