Silenced as mercury rises

World's first documentary on heavy metals and their effects on human health.

Runtime
51 min
Documentary

Synopsis

Whether it’s caused by humans or nature, our bodies are getting more and more contaminated by decades of daily pollution. Of all the toxins and heavy metals we absorb in our lifetime, the second most toxic and deadly for humans is mercury. With that knowledge in hand, one has to wonder why we still use mercury of any form in consumer products. Meet attorneys and healthcare experts who are fighting for change in the name of humanity.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

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.
