A few months before the declaration of independence of Angola, a fierce civil war rages on. Ryszard Kapuściński, a Polish journalist, jeopardizes his life each and every day in order to be the only reporter worldwide to achieve a daily recording of the brutal reality. Dynamic animation is intertwined with archival material, urging the audience to reflect upon what boldly becomes obvious: a tragedy can be captured in its entirety only if one engages personally in the tragic events.
