No Terminal!

The film is a chronicle of a few weeks struggle conducted by a small group of eco-activists supported by Cossacks and locals, against the construction of an ammonia-terminal by the chemical corporation TogliattiAzot. No Terminal! was the slogan on banners near the protest camp and on posters, appealling for protests in the small village of Taman on the cost of the Black sea. Blockades of office, arrests, hunger strikes, demonstrations and protest meetings are a part of the daily life of the eco-activists, contrasted by the quiet resort life in the area where the Cossacks celebration takes place.
