The inside story of the fight against one of the world's biggest mining developments.

In 2008 a consortium of miners and politicians decided to build the world's second biggest natural gas plant in Broome, trampling over the concerns of residents, environmentalists and traditional owners alike. Yet in April this year – in a stunning victory for the resolute, peaceful community opposition – Woodside announced they were shelving the entire $45 billion project.

Documentarian Eugénie Dumont's Heritage Fight tells the story of this battle from the trenches in which it was won. Matching glorious cinematography with candid on-the-ground footage and revealing interviews with the key players, Dumont offers an impassioned portrait of the Indigenous and environmental activists fighting to halt the development, and the power of a united community to take on the world.
