- 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.
