Documentary about the so-called "hope camp", which narrates the long protest carried out by the Sintel workers camped in the middle of Castellana Street in Madrid in defence of their labour rights. The documentary follows the evolution of the events during 4 months, from April to August 2001, reflecting the life of these people during their encampment and the negotiations between the government and the trade unions.

In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station. They were, for all intents and purposes, stranded in Tacloban. With little option, and his crew started the six hour walk to Alto, where the closest broadcast antenna was to be found. Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.
