“Blood on the Mountain” delves into the themes of environmental and economic injustice, as well as corporate dominance in West Virginia, and how these issues impact workers across the United States. The documentary narrates the tale of diligent individuals who have historically faced limited opportunities and have not received equitable benefits from the abundant natural resources of their region. The lack of economic diversification has allowed unregulated external corporations to maintain control, with the backing of politicians who remain in power due to the influence of these companies.
