The desert is calling. Yet, it is with the ocean that Fabrizio Maltese’s journey begins. He has accepted Abderrahmane Sissako’s invitation to continue the film he and Pol Cruchten had initiated together. Pol has since passed away. The project he had been dreaming of has thus taken on a new, symbolic dimension. It must see the light of day. This is why Fabrizio has traveled on his own to meet with the Mauritanian director. But fate seems to have decided otherwise. From Saint Louis in Senegal to Nouakchott in Mauritania, from Mata Moulana to Chinguetti, Fabrizio allows himself to get lost alone in the desert, with nothing more than a few scribbled notes jotted down on the piece of paper that was given to him by the two filmmakers.

If the entire world population lived like the average citizen of Luxembourg, eight planets of earth would be needed to provide sufficient resources for everyone. Eng Äerd presents long-term initiatives of Luxembourg citizens fighting against the depletion of natural resources. Different initiatives already in existence are presented by those who drive and supervise them. The film wants to encourage viewers to change their thinking, both in their private lives and at the level of associations, as well as from an economic and political point of view. It explores the motivations of these Luxembourgish environmentalists and shows that everyone can contribute to building a new healthier and more solidary society in harmony with nature and for the good of all.
