The narrative explores the history of the River Afan in South West Wales, currently under threat from pollution by gas and oil giants, and plots its journey from a precarious past to an uncertain future.

Including heartfelt testimonials from local residents, incisive narration from Michael Sheen and original music composed by Robert Del Naja & Euan Dickson of Massive Attack, the film has been deemed a ‘must see’ for communities engaged in struggle for environmental and social justice.
