Environmental activists Thor, Hulk, Black Panther, Captain Anarchy, and Batman illegally occupy the Mormont hill. They create a utopian society while waging a peaceful struggle against the cement industry. Far from mainstream society, the activists invent, create, and reclaim a disappearing enchanted place. A threat looms when the police announce an upcoming eviction.
This film is a raw immersion into the heart of an engaged community composed of young people with strong ideologies. A realistic and turbulent artistic project that stays close to these anonymous figures to understand what they experienced beyond the agitation.
