Enjoyable eco-thriller with happy ending

Full review

Andreas Malm's excellent book of the same name dealt with why to do it, this film shows how to make it happen. The 8 characters all have a different back-story and motivation, they are all more-or-less young, and have all reached a point where it seems like the logical thing to do. Together they form an effective team with the usual interpersonal tensions sometimes getting in the way.
