The video is triggered by an international mobilization day on October 3 in Saint-Pierre-la-Garenne against the Syngenta production site. The videographer and an investigator from the NGO Public Eye claim that the company practices a "double standard" by exporting pesticides to non-European countries that are banned in Europe. They denounce the health impact on farmers and residents, specifically citing the link between paraquat and Parkinson's disease. The videographer also argues that the agrochemical industry maintains historical and structural links with the arms industry. He mentions the acquisition of Adama and spraying activities linked to Israeli colonial expansion. Finally, the videographer criticizes the French emergency agricultural law of August 18 and the European Omnibus directive.
