The film is rethinking the erection of the razor wire in the forests and fields along the EU border and considers the forests as a political space. Space that bears history of clandestine refuge as well as of clandestine solidarity practices in different contexts, times and eras.

The film presents a fragmented glimpse into the life of people on the move hiding in the forests on the EU borders.
