But an old friend and a commission from “Life"" Magazine editor Ralph Graves, convince him to journey back to Japan to expose the devastating annihilation of a coastal community, victims of corporate greed and complicit local police and government.

But to finally stop hiding behind the lens and earn this broken community’s trust may prove to be Smith’s greatest challenge.MINAMATA is a moving redemptive story of how one man's powerful photograph impacted the world, yet in order to find it he had to open his heart.
