Overview

Independent documentary chronicling the ghosts of Waiuta, the former gold town on New Zealand's West Coast. Archive film and photographs give a rare glimpse of 1900's mining town life - the colourful characters, stories, and the gold that kept its heart beating but left a toxic legacy. Waiuta has now today full circle, with vultures again circling and looking again mine the area's gold.
