Plot Summary:When Dian was six years old, she heard a deep rumble and turned to see a tsunami of mud barreling towards her village. Her mother scooped her up to save her from the boiling mud. Her neighbors ran for their lives. Sixteen villages, including Dian's, were wiped away, forever buried under 60 feet of mud. A decade later, 60,000 people have been displaced from what was once a thriving industrial and residential area in East Java. Dozens of factories, schools and mosques are completely submerged under a moonscape of ooze and grit. The cause? Lapindo, an Indonesian company drilling for natural gas in 2006, unleashed a violent, unstoppable flow of hot sludge from the earth's depths. It is estimated that the mudflow will not end for another decade. Shot over the course of six years, GRIT bears witness to Dian's transformation from young girl to a politically active teenager as she and her mother launch a resistance campaign against the drilling company.
「我們都說這種硫磺味是拉賓多的屁！」面對天譴般的環境災害，倒楣的永遠不是打小白球小黃球的始作俑者，但他們也只能用這種語彙自我調侃。那泥火山的泥漿高堤圈不住，仍不斷排進河裡毒死魚。紀錄片永遠最厲害，只要訪問到正反兩方再拍攝天災人禍遺跡的空景，就能超越好萊塢大把銀子搭景或後製特效呈現的末日場面。
