Synopsis

As green technologies continue to be developed at increasing rates, old paradigms of extraction and exploitation of the Global South are being reimagined for a new era. Lithium Rising illuminates the troubling dirty underpinnings of clean power. From the moment the smartphone alarm wakes us up in the morning, we begin our day relying on the lithium battery. From mundane tasks to lifesaving realities, lithium-powered devices get us through the day.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
