Zadvengers (2024)
Overview
Environmental activists Thor, Hulk, Black Panther, Captain Anarchy and Batman illegally occupy Mormont Hill. They create a utopian model of society while waging a peaceful struggle against the enemy: the cement industry. Far from any society, these activists invent, create and reclaim a threatened site. A new threat looms when the police announce that they will soon be evicted. Zadvengers offers a poetic and personal vision of the reality of activism in the "Zones to be Defended" (ZADs).

The research leads to a serious engagement with the meaning and purpose of windmills, which has something Don Quixote-like about it in the age of nuclear power stations.

This documentary captures the passion to change the world over the course of 10 years, culminating in World Clean-Up Day in 2018.
