The Shadow of Gold
The Shadow of Gold uncovers the startling impact of the gold mining industry on people and the planet revealing the true cost of the consumer’s lust for this precious metal.
IMPACT HIGHLIGHTS
In collaboration with Kensington Communications, Ring Five organized The Shadow of Gold’s world premiere at the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Theatre and led a six-city Canadian theatrical tour. We formed outreach partnerships with groups including MiningWatch and Human Rights Watch Canada and with their strategic involvement developed calls to action and curated expert panel discussions.
See our Phase One Impact Report. We are now working on Phase Two of the campaign, creating a Discussion Guide and bringing the film to remote mine-affected communities and into schools and metalsmith programs. Phase Two support is being provided by corporate and family foundation grants.
