Synopsis

During the Middle Ages Kremnice profited from gold, a huge part of gold present in Europe came from this place. As it was a rich city, it was besieged several times, but never conquered. New methods have shown that gold can be extracted from the site close to the city still today. But the gold is just scattered on gold dust and getting it out is possible only for devastating conditions for the life of the city and its inhabitants. The time-lapse film explores cohabitance of these two dramatically different perspectives.
