    • Synopsis
    • Pierre Anthon and his classmates have just started
      9th grade, when Pierre Anthon declares that life has
      no meaning, leaves school and moves up in a tree,
      refusing to come down. This sparks an existential crisis amongst his classmates. They decide to gather their most valuable belongings in a “heap of meaning” that will convince Pierre Anthon that he is wrong.
      A dangerous, disturbing, and controversial study of
      what really matters has begun.
      What started out with innocent offerings to the heap
      soon turns into a spiral of psychological violence: the
      more painful the sacrifice is, the more it means and the more is asked of the next in line.
