About the Documentary

End of a Rainbow
A western multinational corporation bought a gold mine in Guinea. It then dismantled a gold mine in Indonesia, shipped the gigantic machinery to Guinea, reconstructed it there, and started gold mining. All of a sudden, the villagers who used to pan gold to make up for insufficient crop harvest became the “gold thieves.”
