Milan Rastislav Štefánik was the first Slovak to undertake the journey around the world, who conquered Mont Blanc and survived downing of his plane during WW1. He was an intellectual, scientist, inventor, astronomer, national hero, but also a women-loving bon vivant. Hundred years ago, his dreams were seen as utopic. However, he didn´t hesitate to take a step forward to the unknown and make the dream of his country´s liberation come true. Given his weakened health and the poorest family background, his fate seems almost incredible. The film uses complicated special effects to show the real adventures of Štefánik – revealing unknown thrilling moments of his life - full of suspense, emotions and humour.
