Overview

At the heart of modern Europe lies a silent paradox: while we celebrate sustainability, we destroy more than half of our wool—one of our most ecological materials. Through 14 interviews in 11 countries and following two shepherds over the course of a year, the film reveals a fragile knowledge interwoven into the landscapes and everyday gestures. Wool is not disappearing due to a lack of quality, but rather under the pressure of synthetic fibers, a byproduct of the oil industry, which releases microplastics into our world and our bodies. What is at stake goes beyond the material: a living connection between the land, biodiversity, and traditions that shape a sustainable future.
