Filmmaker, Böhm and his team spent more than two years on the project starting from a crowdfunding campaign and following the fight against startling oppression, against the Beijing-influenced administration under Carrie Lam, the protests in Chile against social inequality, and in Uganda at the local Fridays for Future protests and actions for climate justice.
