Synopsis
The peripheral city of l’Hospitalet inherits a combative spirit, the struggle to conquer its own space. Now, teenagers that populate the periphery take this legacy, the desire to free themselves from urban artificiality, and turn the city into a space to play and challenge the limits. The neighborhood tells us a story: that of the human irrepressible impulse to be able to choose its own paths.
