The documentary film presents the personality of the philosopher, biologist and mystic Zdenek Neubauer, whom Václav Havel once described as the most special thing he had ever seen in his life. Zdeněk Neubauer had peculiar views on science, he walked everywhere barefoot and often in a hermit's hood. A radical thinker worthy of being addressed as "master", a controversial personality, for some a dilettante and a fool. It's all kind of true. The film contains memories and, above all, materials that documentarian Tomáš Škrdlant together with Zdenek Neubauer filmed for fifteen years. This is how the life story of an unusual person unfolds, who honestly managed to enjoy learning about the world. This was a really unmissable personality, which this picture allows us to get to know more closely.
