Kernwell's head of charities is Madeleine Harlsburg, the wife of the company's CEO, Tom Harlsburg.

- After the general elections in October 2015, Poland turned to ultra-conservatism and formed a parliament without representatives of the left. The Law and Justice party won the elections by an absolute majority with a programme that promotes a united and pure Poland. Demonstrations by followers of the right-wing parties are proliferating, demanding a Poland free of immigrants and criticizing European policies on refugees. In this environment, popular initiatives and NGOs are emerging that are fighting for a more tolerant and multicultural Poland. One of these initiatives is the Wroclaw Human Library. The Human Library is an educational initiative that turns people into books, living books with a common denominator: discrimination. The reader who takes out one of these books will discover stories of social minorities or people who, due to their race, sexual status or religion have been rejected or labelled by society. In a country that is little accustomed to diversity, this library is an opportunity to combat discrimination.

However, only 11% of the population is not satisfied with the level of freedom of expression in the country. This documentary gives voice to that small portion of Russians who are not only unsatisfied with the freedom they have but who are also suffering the consequences of saying what they think. Many of them have gone to prison and some have even seen colleagues die. Journalists, human rights activists, lawyers, artists and political opponents describe the country's complex mentality and their government's methods to silence any dissenting voices. While this small resistance continues to struggle, Vladimir Putin's popularity reaches 82%.
