He was the greatest talent of his generation. The story of a man who lived too intensely. Karel Duchoň's story begins during the filming of a New Year's Eve TV show in 1984, and a man who not long ago had the world at his feet, has his whole life flash before his eyes in one night. We see how a boy from a country band was given the opportunity to play in the clubs of the west, and also how he became a true pop icon of the era overnight thanks to a single song upon his return. The most renowned composers and lyricists in Slovakia wrote for him, he won prizes at the most important competitions and many international tours came. However, his enormous success is also beginning to awaken his inner demons... And we will be able to observe all this accompanied by his greatest hits.
