Painter Zdzisław Beksiński, his wife Zofia and their son Tomasz, a well-known radio journalist and translator, were a typical and unconventional family, both at the same time. One of the father’s obsessions was filming himself and his family members.

This film is a double portrait, or rather a triple one, as the extraordinary story of Franciszka and Stefan Themerson is told by the painter’s niece.
