Synopsis:

In a post-pandemic Paris, a group of defiant youth inadvertently forges the A21, a guerrilla movement. Unaware of its potential to reshape France's History, their aim is to take revenge on the patriarchal system. How? Through a series of artistico-military operations that shock the world, they emerge as the most creative fighters for democracy. From 2021 to 2027, the A21 will orchestrate its most audacious operations like stealing Marie Antoinette’s slipper or 5800 weapons from Napoleon’s tomb. Inspired by feminist, revolutionaries, this guerrilla not only reshapes France forever but also leaves behind a legacy of experiences to confront the New Cold War. The narrative weaves the fervent passions of youth where love and pain intertwine with politics and warfare. This guerilla is composed of a group of young artists, teenagers, students, but also workers, all outsiders from diverse walks of life. Its protagonists, now legendary figures, reside in the collective consciousness as heroes to some and villains to others: INES FAVALLI (26) infuses audacity and joy into her comrades with her rebellious humor; MATHIEU SANTORI (23) is the visionary who defies conventions to outmaneuver political norms; and ROSE LÉVY (18) alias “PP” (Parisian Princess) the youngest commander and first-hand witness, militant, and chronicler of one of History's most subversive guerrillas. Their revolution takes a sudden turn when they lose their first comrade, and poetry turns into warfare.
