Economic Apartheid is the dominant system. The Green Zone is fast becoming a global state of mind. Instability is the new norm. Walls are built from suburbia to borders, to protect those in power from the chaos they themselves have caused, to keep the displaced and the poor away.
This film begins where others have given up.
Gael Garcia Bernal scales the walls to learn from those who refuse to accept the way the world is, who are fighting for a very different vision of the future and whose very existence relies on resistance. These are the people whose actions are redefining the social issues of our time.
What happens to the man who embarks on a journey to redefine the meaning of existence for himself?
We’re currently doing research into which stories of resistance to include in the film.
Do you have a story of resistance that you want to tell us about? You can tell us anonymously if you don’t want to use your real email address.
We’ve set up a network where you can share information, skills and friendship. Who knows what might come from these connections?
What forms of resistance do you think we should be researching?
Contribute to the debate in our forums.
