Portrait of a 21 years old blind Romany musician and composer. The film shows him at home, in the streets and in the night club, where he plays keyboard with a band. This young unseeing musician speaks about his life, his well shaped attitudes towards it, about his love for music. The film-makers portray oustandingly general aspects of life of the Romanies in our society and a zealous effort of a talented individual to step out of the limitations drawn by his physical handicap and social background.
