It tells the David vs Goliath tales of front line leaders around the world risking life and limb in the fight for a liveable climate.Interwoven with this riveting verité footage are the most renowned voices in the global conversation around social movements and climate justice for a series that is personal, passionate and powerful.The stakes could not be higher, nor the missions more critical.About the Mega-dam film seriesSarawak’s mega-hydro projects are driven by the state government through the Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy, or SCORE. If built, these dams will force tens of thousands of people from their land, drive untold species to extinction, pollute the rivers—the lifelines of the jungle—and produce more greenhouse gas emissions per megawatt of energy than a coal-fired power plant.
