In an open documentary diary, the director Honza Hušek captures the physical and spiritual transformation of his journey from a boy to a man. He returns to the roots of his childhood traumas and in doing so, he turns the camera on himself as well as on various teachers or his father. Over the course of five years he explores various prototypes of manhood. This journey leads him closer to his goal of becoming a more sensitive person, but „true manhood“ appears to be hidden behind a dead end. Perhaps the mark of adulthood, after all, is not overwrought masculinity, but the acceptance of your inner “pisspants”.
