In 2019, almost three hundred thousand people gathered on the Letna Plain in Prague. They were demonstrating against the prime minister and the president, but above all, standing up for democracy. Two students who feared for the future of the Czech Republic addressed the crowd from a stage. This unique film about Mikuláš Minář and Benjamin Roll uncovers the gripping story of the founders of the Million Moments for Democracy movement. Director Amálie Kovářová spent six years capturing the behind-the-scenes of the group behind the largest political protest since the Velvet Revolution. It went through ups and downs, times of enthusiasm and lethargy, being showered with praise and disappointing its supporters. Mik and Ben experienced it all from the beginning. Two young men who believed that, even in the toughest moments, hope can prevail.
