In southern Portugal, where we find beautiful beaches from all Europe, major oil and gas companies acquire fossil fuel exploration contracts along its coast.Joao Camargo, activist and climate expert, Angela Rosa, a local farmer, and Laurinda Seabra, a former South African oil industry worker, are struggling to save their land and form community support groups.Taken as a true example of unity and civil force, the film raises up the following questions - Can civic involvement make a difference? Can we make a difference these days? Who is really in charge, politicians or locals?
