Muck

Kimberley has a rich history in mining. With often 4, even 5 generations of families working in the Sullivan Mine and over 65,000 employees over the 100 years of its operations, Kimberley has a mining history too big and rich to tell in one short film.

Spoken from the point of view of local characters, miners and their families, the story of Muck gives a sense of the not so distant mining days. Muck is also is about a team of volunteers who started to transform Kimberley into a tourist destination starting in the 70's and left a legacy of an underground mining railway and interpretive centre in which Kimberley's rich mining history can be celebrated for many years to come.

Muck is a warm hearted account of both the good times and bad times shared in the 100 years of Kimberley's mining history.
