Amazing love story about Gold : Where ? From different Continents Kind of Mines - Open pits and underground Mines How it’s produced ? Process How it’s used ? Tradition - kingdoms - Electronic Devices - Jewelry Benefits for Communities, Energy Challenges - health programs Impact on the Environment and how mitigate Gold and Banks - Reserves - Deposits Selling & Buying Technology automated engines, satellite to find out gold deposits Different meanings : Beauty - Power - Health - Technology - Financial Security Gold is more than a metal. It’s part of us.

This documentary isnt accurate at all about what is gold business, its just a promotion for big mining companies and shown only 1% of what is the gold industry. It would be more accurate if all of the aspects of the gold business were shown like the SSM and small gold communities in Ghana or other countries struggling to export their goods and facing scammers and more... Again in that industry everybody want to show a nice face but hide what is happening in the background. Very disappointed

Just watched the trailer & I am actually excited to watch this over the upcoming weekend!

All Indian politicians stores more gold and terrorists stores more gold so gold price should fall even more...Wars across world will stop when gold price falls all time low...Gold should be traded in lower value. World should turn to platinum standard

Excited to watch Idris Elba uncover the fascinating story of gold and its impact on our world!

Idris was in Ghana and attended one of the local festivals by the King of Ashanti- Akwasidae festival. Saved this picture of him in the rich Kente cloth.

Very great story, well told. Captures great highlights of how the intrinsic values gold holds is derived.
