Synopsis:
Xayaburi dam located in Lao PDR is the first dam being built on the main stream of the Lower Mekong River. Since its inception, the dam has proved controversial for social and ecological reasons; most importantly for its potential effects on the wild capture fisheries of the Mekong River that thousands of people in the region and beyond depend upon for food, trade and livelihoods. The film provides critical perspectives on the dubious politics, bad science and conflict of interest behind engineering the dam. It highlights the role of the Finnish company Pöyry who did the studies to justify building the project by downplaying potentially serious environmental and social impacts.
