Documentary capturing the dramatic fate of the most famous Czech bard, Karel Kryl. The film introduces many of his best-known songs, as well as the less well-known ones. Another important line of the film is the search for the copy of Andrzej Zajączkowski’s film, who in 1969 as a student at FAMU, shot a film about Karel Kryl´s song Morituri te salutant. His documentary had then been hidden by an employee of Czechoslovak Film Archive and it has still not been found.
