SYNOPSIS

It begins at the margins of power, where a small group of teenagers protest outside parliament, driven by determination and a sense of urgency. From this starting point, Helena Molin’s long-term documentary follows Greta Thunberg and six of her closest collaborators from Fridays for Future over seven years. Their fight for climate justice runs parallel to a life that should be about friendship, play, and future dreams, but is repeatedly interrupted by the failures of the adult world. The result is an intimate and powerful depiction of what happens when moral responsibility is placed in the hands of those still searching for their place in the world.
