Argentina is one of the richest areas left for precious metal mining. Over 400 mega-mines are already in operation and many more would like to get started. However, they are not always welcomed. They Came For The Gold, They Came For It All is a film about one small town's defeat of a major mining company's bid to dig in to their mountain, a project that threatened not only the mountain habitat but also the area's water supply. The film shows that how even a small town with a high unemployment rate can fight against a project that doesn't have the citizens' best interests at heart.
