Film Talk with Hadley Austin & Yoni Golstein, Director and DOP of DEMON MINERAL

Moderation: Maren Willkomm


DEMON MINERAL, US 2023 – Director: Hadley Austin


On the territory of the Navajo Nation in USA, disused uranium
mines pose an on-going threat to the environment of the
indigenous people. Their efforts to reclaim their sacred earth
and gain compensation are unfailing. Here the indigenous
community of activists, artists and scientists have their say. A
film manifesto that is intelligent in both its form and narrative
content. Maren Willkomm
