A group of activists—all strangers—from more than 15 countries meet online in the midst of a global pandemic. In this touching short documentary we see how people can connect with each other in surprisingly profound ways, despite being strangers in different countries living very different lives.

This is a life affirming testament to how the power of human connection can transcend language, distance, a global pandemic, and technology limitations, and shows how humans anywhere can be united by their common urge to create a better world.
