Alma's mother, an environmental activist and photojournalist, has died. This makes it all the more important for her to continue her mother’s work and campaign for the environment. To this end she has, however, to stand up to her father since he, of all people, is involved in the plans to build the parking lot. For Alma's neighbour - the tomboyish Luna, with whom Alma doesn't get on particularly well - skating also means everything, which is why she does everything in her power to ensure that the playground and skate park are not demolished. They share a common goal and have to work together to achieve it – and thus soon realise that they are not so different after all. Yet little time remains for her and her fellow campaigners to save their favorite spot. When their protest fails, they resolve to disable the excavators by stealing their most valuable parts - the generators.
In Croatia, the campaign #GibanjeZaGibanje (Movement for Movement) was launched in parallel with the film's release. Developed jointly by the film team and the creative studio Trampolin, it aimed at getting children and adolescents away from screens of all kinds and encouraging them to exercise outdoors. The campaign also features Croatian rapper Nipke and producer Damjan Jović, who together wrote a song - an ode to the importance of exercise and growing up healthily, a major issue in today's society – for the film.
