5. Gold Fever Tragic and inspiring, Gold Fever witnesses the arrival of Goldcorp Inc to a remote Guatemalan village. 500 years after the conquistadors invaded, and still reeling from decades of US-backed repression, San Miguel Ixtahuacán is caught at the front lines of an increasingly globalized world. Meanwhile, in the North, fearful investors flock to gold and some call for the return of the Gold Standard. “What is the value of the one place we have to live?” Commentators Noam Chomsky, Magalí Rey Rosa, and “economic hitman” John Perkins draw connections between the stratospheric forces of Wall Street and San Miguel’s struggle.
  
  Winner of the Rigoberta Mechú Grand Prix at the 2013 Montreal First Peoples Festival, Gold Fever is a hard-hitting documentary about the destruction and exploitation of transnational mining. Together with members of their divided community, and in the face of grave consequences, Diodora, Crisanta and Gregoria resist the threat to their ancestral lands.

  Giant Mine, located near Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories, is still an unhealed, open wound for Mary Rose Sundberg, a grand-mother from the Yellowknives Dene First Nation. On behalf of her grand-children and her people, she is anxiously following the remediation of the 237,000 tons of arsenic buried underground, enough arsenic to kill the world a few times over if it gets in contact with water. The mine happens to be located under the source of water for Yellowknife, Great Slave Lake, which eventually makes its way to the Arctic Ocean. The permafrost is melting underground, water is infiltrating the tunnels and we will need to pump that water to the surface.... forever! Mary Rose is worried. How do we communicate the toxicity lying under Giant Mine to future generations, those who will follow us in 100 years, 1000 year or 100,000 years? We must warn them of the danger lurking down under, the monster under Giant Mine. Her people have communicated their knowledge since time immemorial through legends and stories....must they now create a modern legend about this man-made toxic waste ? Mary Rose pleads for future generations, the guardians of eternity.
