Supported by the landless trade union,they spent four years occupying jahr lager in a remote mountain . Like pioneers from an old western, they settle a farming community on this land " haunted by dryness, with the sole strength of their arms and hopes. The collective management of the property and its resources " turns out to be an adventure, even more demanding than the conquest of the lands. It is this utopian force that the film looks at, grounding through the ordeal of a verfiel reality.
