When Lan's granddaughter posts a furious message about online harm and hypocrisy that goes viral, her words trigger an internet pile-on to silence her.
She and her family are forced to make a choice: retreat from the toxic mess that's wrecking our world or take a stand and fight for a better future. Only this most unlikely group of change makers, with its intergenerational mix of ancient wisdom and hi-tech savviness, has the vision to derail the capitalist status quo and make a lasting change to the system.
Grand in scope and rich in courageous characters, here is a dream of a better future: a world that has learnt from the past, that we’d be proud to leave to our children.
Dream deeply. Rise up strong. Change is coming...
