0.2 Milligrams of Gold
ABOUT
8,500 kilometers lie between the Amazon and the Ardennes. In his home country of Brazil, Diego only looks at the inaccessible forest from the outside. Its Belgian counter piece, however, is easy to explore. Here, everything is laid out by people and neatly ordered. A geologist, a gold miner, and an astronomer provide insights for a philosophical exploration of the origin of existence and the future of our planet.
