Three activists join forces to stand against a massive European gas pipeline project, impacting civil rights from Azerbaijan to southern Italy.

The Southern Gas Corridor, spanning 3500 kilometers from Azerbaijan to Southern Italy, represents Europe’s largest energy endeavor. Greek farmer Themis, retired teacher Ippazio, and young activist Giacomo feel the impact of the pipeline on their lives and lands.
