A documentary film about Wojciech Kilar, his life and music. The film is a candid confession of a composer who is aware of his life and creative choices.

The film uses unique materials from the composer's private collection, previously unpublished. The realization took more than a year, the footage was shot in Jasna Góra, Seville, Vorochta, Paris.

The composer wrote music to the young filmmaker's debut picture Struktura kryształu / The Structure of Crystals (1969), and Zanussi was so impressed with both the soundtrack and Kilar's understanding and general savvy that he kept submitting his artistic proposals only to him. As a result this outstanding duo completed over forty feature films, as well as documentaries and television works. In a short story by Krzysztof Zanussi we learn more about this unique, long-term cooperation.
