At a decommissioned power plant in northern Greece, a local children’s choir plays the roles of generations of workers from this deindustrialized region. A reflection on environmental decay, public health and economic poverty originates from the voices of the children and from the promise of a “greener” future which will save them from the threat of climate change.
