His friends and classmates cannot get him to come down – not even by pelting him with rocks.
To prove to him that there is a meaning to life, they set out to build a heap of meaning in an abandoned sawmill. But it soon becomes obvious that each person cannot give up what is most meaningful and events begin to spiral out of control…
