Someone Else’s Treasure is an ongoing multimedia documentary project which brings to light some of the experiences of people around the world – including the Philippines, Tanzania, Papua New Guinea, Australia, Chile, and Canada – whose lives have been impacted by the global mining industry.
The focus of Someone Else’s Treasure is on the people, the communities, not the companies. Someone Else’s Treasure is not about a handful companies that are breaking the law, because in fact there are no international laws to hold them accountable for what you’re about to see.
Someone Else’s Treasure is about one question — what is it that we treasure above all else, our families, communities, livelihoods, culture, health, or is it profit, money, or gold?
