The Miner of Wittenoom

Based on true events, this powerful story of love, resilience, and the fight for justice unfolds against the backdrop of corporate greed. In 1961, Abele and Maria Moretti moved to Wittenoom, Australia, seeking a better life. They soon adapted to the harsh and desolate outback, creating their future and embracing new opportunities. But the mine where Abele worked hid deadly secrets. At short notice, the mine stopped operating. Soon after, the Government was determined to close the town the family had come to love. In 1992, as Abele's health declined, the family uncovered the truth and sought justice. Meanwhile, a lawyer for the mining company made a surprising discovery about her family that caused her to rethink her allegiances.
