The film takes up the question of what the political idea of anarchism can actually mean in today's world. The authors travel to projects in Greece , Spain and Germany that are putting this idea into practice. The filmmakers will also be guests at the 2012 “International Anarchist Meeting” in Switzerland . You visit the environmental activist Hanna Poddig and meet members of the anarcho-syndicalist Spanish trade union “ Confederación General del Trabajo ” in Barcelona . They represent the emerging anarchist approaches in Greece. Starting with the redesign of a parking lot into "Parko Narvarinou", neighborhood collective structures emerged in the Exarchia district in Athens . Finally, the Munich "Potato Combine" is shown as a project that takes up anarchist ideas without calling itself an anarchist project.
