The documentary about Feri Lainšček, one of the most prolific and highly acclaimed Slovenian writers and poets, foregrounds the essence of his creativity shaped up by his commitment to love, the Pannonian landscape with the River Mura, friendship with the Roma people, the blending of the magical world and reality, and the ongoing search for answers to the most fundamental questions of life. In the film, sections of his life are juxtaposed with his poems about demons.

Hinko Smrekar was a brilliant painter, graphic artist and cartoonist, a companion of the greats of Slovenian literature and fine arts between the two world wars. Freedom was the basic foundation of his life and creation, as he himself wrote, he could not "force himself even with batons and bayonets not to look and think with his own head."
