Australia sits on vast reserves of coal seam gas, and this film asks whether extracting it will turn the country into an energy superpower or leave a trail of damaged farmland and groundwater behind. Interviews with farmers, industry representatives, and scientists lay out the split: drilling companies point to billions of dollars in export revenue and thousands of jobs, while landholders describe wells appearing on their properties, aquifers they fear will be contaminated, and compensation fights with gas companies. The film travels through rural Queensland and New South Wales, where the boom is most visible, showing flaring wells, holding ponds, and the pipelines being built to carry gas to coastal export terminals. Regulators and geologists weigh in on how much is actually known about the long-term effects on water tables, and how much is still guesswork. The film does not resolve the argument so much as lay out what is at stake for the communities living on top of the resource.
