The Idealist. The Activist.
Is there such a thing as the ideal activist? Perhaps...Gandhi, obviously, springs to mind...with his principle of Satyagraha. But, it takes the greatest of minds to implement peaceful protest to success. Gandhi had that mind and delivered success...on the grandest of scales.
There are no great minds here nor are there any successes...here, they are irrational, idealistic narcissists who revel in their glory while forgetting the cause.
It's not the greatest insight into activism ever made...but, it does - amply - show how anyone can be swept away by a group mentality. The danger occurs when that group mentality splits.
Winston Churchill said, "The fascists of the future will call themselves anti-fascists." Discuss. Sadly, this film didn't!

The(ir) Blurb...
Luisa, a 20-year-old law student, joins a cell of the Antifa group when she and her friends Alfa and Lenor get to know about an upcoming attack planned by a local neo-Nazi gang. As they try to find out more, the three youngsters delve deeper into the scene linked to right-wing movements and their political connections, to the point where they will understand how much they are willing to go further, in order to defend their own beliefs.
