For over 120 years hundreds of thousands of black men from the countries of Southern Africa have left their families to dig for gold and produce the wealth of South Africa. Today these mining communities face severe poverty and the world's greatest epidemic of silicosis and tuberculosis caused by exposure to silica dust in gold mines. The true cost of South Africa's wealth is revealed by the juxta-positioning of present day gold miner stories with an archival voice created from state and mining records and repurposed industrial documentaries and propaganda films. The archival voice further reveals the untold story of how industrialised South Africa was built on a foundation of modern slavery based on a vast system of recruitment that utilized propaganda films since the early 1900's. Dying for Gold is also a story of mad love that holds men, women and children through experiences of unspeakable pain and death.

The Black Mamba is well known as Africa's deadliest snake. In the small country of Swaziland, it's feared and revered for its power. Between October and February, temperatures rise here and it's known as 'snake season'. At this time of year, black mambas turn up everywhere - in people's homes, schools and cars. When people find snakes here, they kill them but getting close enough to kill a mamba means it is close enough to kill you, and people are getting bitten here every week. In a country with very limited health care and no anti-venom, it is becoming a crisis. Two very unlikely people have become motivated to do something about it. Thea Litschka-Koen is a mum, and manages a hotel with her husband Clifton. Known affectionately as the white witch by the locals, Thea is determined to change attitudes towards venomous snakes, based on centuries of fear and superstition. She and her husband are on call 24 hours a day to rescue and release black mambas and other venomous snakes when they get 'too close for comfort'. But what the locals really want to know is - will they come back again? We follow Thea and her team as they set up a pioneering new scientific project to track black mambas in the wild. If she can find out more about their movements and daily lives, she will be able to pass on vital information and reassurance to the local people who have to live alongside them.
