China has its eye on a tiny Pacific nation that could have big geopolitical ramifications: Solomon Islands.

Four Corners travels to the Solomons – one of the first international film crews to enter the country since borders reopened – to investigate the kind of influence Chinese money is buying: from a sports stadium and timber plantation, to deep-water ports and a political slush fund.

With a new security pact signed between the two countries, regional powers like Australia and the United States are worried this could be the start of a new Chinese military presence in the region.
