Low-tech is a genuine ecological approach of designing and sharing simple, sustainable technology and know how that are accessible to all. Adrien Bellay´s film plunges us into the daily lives of the people striving to democratize this new approach.
The precursors of this movement - be they activists, farmers, engineers or entrepreneurs - are seeking a more sober lifestyle and looking to create a positive impetus in every area of social life. In farming, housing, energy, education and in the economy, low-tech is inspiring people.
From local to global, we see how committed citizens manage to turn their dreams into reality. In the worlds of Repair Cafés, organic farming, alternative housing and top engineering schools, the low-tech approach is spreading, with tools available to us all.
The film´s subjects give us a glimpse of what the world of tomorrow could look like.
