“You see, we want to do something - we want to discover what happens to people when they cannot live together without fighting all the time. We want to learn what people really want, what they need to be happy, and how they can attain it without stealing it from someone else. You can’t do this in politics. You can’t experiment like in a lab…”
Two young men want to do something. Two young women follow them, each for her own reasons. Two university professors, one disillusioned by the contract of academic life and the other alienated by it. A strange group will live for five days in a peculiar place, where about a thousand people have set up a large ongoing experiment. Ten years after the experiment began, they have managed to live together without hostilities, to be happy, creative, and to obtain what they need without having to steal from anyone.
How will our heroes feel when they encounter something so different from everything they know? Will it fascinate or scare them? How will this shape their relationships, their decisions, their lives? B.F. Skinner guides us into a fascinating society. A journey that, against all odds of journeys, does not aim for a destination, but a starting point.
