Jerzy Kukuczka was one of the greatest climbers in the history of mountaineering. He climbed no less than seventeen eight-thousanders, opening new routes, sometimes also in winter. His eighteenth expedition was his last: he indeed died on the south face of the Lhotse in October 1989. The film is a biography, constructed by assembling rare material available in Polish television archives or held by private citizens.
