Lithium is the essential element for the batteries of our electric vehicles and for our energy storage. Europe has enough lithium in its bedrock to become self-sufficient.

    This isn't a film; it's corporate propaganda disguised as a documentary. It paints a disgustingly dishonest picture of lithium mining in Europe, portraying destructive companies as eco-saviors while completely ignoring the devastation they bring to local communities and the environment. The film is a slap in the face to anyone who actually cares about sustainability, pushing a pro-corporate, pro-consumerism agenda wrapped in a thin veil of "green" lies. An infuriating and cynical piece of snake oil.
