Paris, in the early 1990s: a group of young activists is desperately tied to finding the cure against an unknown lethal disease. They target the pharmaceutical labs that are retaining potential cures, and multiply direct actions, with the hope of saving their lives as well as the ones of future generations.

"My muses may not be yours, my monsters may not please you." CHARBON portrays a new generation of Parisian artists: authors, photographers, illustrators, performers, musicians, poets. They all let their thoughts drift away during nights, performances or simple conversations.
