Hell's miners of Potosi

Synopsis

At an altitude of 4,700 meters, Bolivian miners are disappearing everyday into the depths of the Potossi mountain. Poisoned by the dust, exhausted by hypoxia, and threatened by collapsing, they tirelessly dig the rock, in a suffocating atmosphere. Eduardo, a 22 years old boy, dreams of making a fortune here, and is ready to embrace the risky lives of the Potossi miners.
