This film about Jaroslav Dušek, the improviser, theatre actor and director, is not a typical portrait of a famous personality – it is more like a portrayal of his inner life, his opinions and attitude toward things that affect every creature. The film was shot over the course of more than one year and it shows us excerpts from plays as well as encounters with the mentally handicapped, with dolphins, communication with stones, the construction of an ecological sod house, walking on hot coals and much more. Here Jaroslav Dušek talks very suggestively and convincingly of the basic moments of life as a wise and inspirational personality whose attitude to living is based on joy.
