Lithium Rising: The Race for Critical Minerals

Lithium Rising: The Race for Critical Minerals

“Lithium Rising” is a journey through the global race for critical minerals - the metals powering our green transition – and asking who benefits and who gets left behind. Filmed across five continents, the documentary explores how the drive to decarbonize has sparked fierce geopolitical competition, while also imposing steep costs on vulnerable communities at the frontlines of extraction.
