Daniel Fienberg HitFix This is a good yarn -- unlike so many Sundance docs, it doesn't wear its Importance on its sleeve, even if there's ample thematic heft -- and also a good film. Rated: A- Jan 24, 2014 Full Review Guy Lodge Variety Mark Grieco's detailed, patient chronicle of a Colombian gold rush is equal parts passion and compassion project. Jan 19, 2014 Full Review Mark Bell Film Threat The identities of the people, the town and mining are all tightly intertwined. Maybe there's a diplomatic solution to be found, but that is made difficult... Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 29, 2014 Full Review Mark Adams Screen International Offers a fascinating glimpse into life in a tough and resilient community where they are struggling to protect their way of life.
