SYNOPSIS

On July 15th 1934, an illegal gathering of socialists took place in the Vienna Woods to commemorate the dead of the Palace of Justice in 1927. When the fascist police discovered them, they opened fire and killed 2 young men. 90 years later, the traces left by the incident have almost disappeared. This film is looking for remains through texts from official sources and statements from the archives. A group of people - as young as those killed on that day - return to try and recall the past and understand that trees and the wind can bear witness to history.
