Red Gold
2008 FESTIVAL
54 min.
Imagine a pristine Alaskan watershed with the most productive Sockeye salmon rivers in the world, teeming with millions of native fish pushing up river to spawn. Now imagine the world’s largest open pit gold and copper mine at their headwaters. Produced by Ben Knight and Travis Rummel of Felt Soul Media and Trout Unlimited Alaska, Red Gold explores the proposed Pebble Mine; it is told through the voices of commercial, subsistence and sport fishermen of Bristol Bay, Alaska.
