Hell's Miners of Potosi

This documentary descends into the Potosi mountain in Bolivia, where miners work at nearly five thousand meters in brutal, life-shortening conditions. Poisoned by dust, weakened by thin air and threatened by collapse, they dig the rock day after day for meager reward. The film bears witness to a punishing labor that has swallowed generations. It is an unflinching, deeply human portrait of survival in one of the world's most dangerous mines. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
