In the early 1970s, with the raging Vietnam War, oppression of civil and human rights, and the environment under relentless destruction, young people of America wanted major change—and they got to work. This is the true story of a group of independent, free-spirited youth who rebelled against the system and built a new way to live, creating community and celebrating life while supporting themselves in unique and unconventional ways. They risked breaking the rules to achieve their dreams, even under threat of imprisonment or death on the stormy seas. They changed the world and had an unforgettable time doing it during those tumultuous, revolutionary days when everything changed.
