Judit lives with an all-consuming urge to please others, even if it means losing herself. At the same time, she throws herself obsessively into self-improvement and fights passionately for the planet. But when she turns her whole life upside down, she suddenly realises what she has sacrificed all this time.
In a search for something to hold on to, Judit delves into ancient Bible stories and memes on Instagram. Isn’t she herself part of the very nature she claims to be fighting for? Is humanity really the villain in the bigger picture? Or is it a sinister masterplan by the fossils – the source of all the fuel and plastic poisoning the world?
