The people of Kalsaka have lived off the gold provided by their local mine for ages. This ended with the arrival of a multinational mining corporation, which expropriated local landowners and exploited the natural resources, leaving the village with nothing. NO GOLD FOR KALSAKA follows Jean-Baptiste and his community’s fight to survive and claim back their dignity.
