The star of this story is Polish climber Piotr "Mad" Korczak, but somewhere in the background is his rival Andrzej Marcisz. The director focuses on the decline of Korczak¡¯s career but also encourages reflection on a future when he will no longer be able to climb. This touching film bears witness to our inability to accept getting old and our powerful desire for immortality.
