The protagonist of the film, a retired miner from Silesia, has covered over 80,000 kilometers on foot. He is about to begin his third circumnavigation of the globe. He practices a rare and little-known sport in Poland: ultramarathon running. In two days of continuous running, he is able to cover 378 km – the distance from Bielsko-Biała to Warsaw. What is commonplace for him is impossible and crazy for the average mortal. His achievements are impressive: third place in the world championships in the 48-hour run and second place in the European championships in the 24-hour run. Despite this, he remains unknown to most people.
