On the background of a hunger strike to save a famous salmon river from being dammed up for electrical power development, the Sami Ole Raino believes in his own protests. He plans a sabotage.

The film compares human evolution to that of the chicken. Just as the chicken once lived freely in nature, but now only has a function as a broiler and egg incubator, human evolution has gone from a life of its own to becoming a slave to technology.

In connection with the UN Conference on the Environment in Stockholm in 1972, the Moderna Museum sent out an invitation to all schools in Sweden. The country's schoolchildren were invited to participate in an exhibition in the museum. This was to be the schoolchildren's opportunity to express themselves publicly. The film is an attempt at a synthesis of all the opinions and ideas that this enormous exhibition contained.
