A journey between reality and a dream, the film takes us through the life of a legendary Polish musician. After an 18-year hiatus, Lech Janerka released the album ‘Gipsowy odlew falsyfikatu,’ winning five Fryderyk Awards in the most prestigious categories. The film combines the artist’s memories, archival concert footage and the material depicting 70 years of life in Poland, creating a unique, non- linear portrayal of the artist.
