Synopsis

A film about the greatest legend of the (Czech) Slovak poetic scene – Jozef Urban. A dramatic story with a smile about one of the greatest Slovak poets, a representative of the so-called Lost Generation. Author of the lyrics to the song Water Keeping Me Afloat. A genius, unable to cope with the pitfalls of everyday life, but so strong in his poems that he became part of school-leaving exam questions in his early thirties. A person as pure as a diamond, but sometimes also as sharp.
