All over Europe, people are looking for a different economy. They are working on human alternatives to competition and growth. Journalist Tine Hens tells their story.

What would the world look like after capitalism? What does it mean to suddenly let go of growth as a yardstick? What if we all decide that it is not the economy that determines us, but that we are the economy?

'The small resistance' is a journey along forgotten utopias, along farmers who sell electricity, along home-grown kiwis, along people who have exchanged ownership for exchange, sharing and giving. A story of people who are working very hard not to move forward so fast. But they do push their street, neighbourhood, village or city in a different direction in their own way.
