    Brief synopsis

    More than 18 tons of gold were excavated over a period of 6 years by a British multinational company in Kalsaka, a small town in Burkina Faso. This brought about an environmental disaster with social consequences. The inhabitants of Kalsaka are fighting to obtain compensation.
