The film explores prayer as a real force and the community that can sustain a person when they can no longer cope. The story revolves around the extraordinary journey of Michał Ulewiński, who travels almost 650 kilometers across Poland, carrying a 15-kilogram cross. The route—from the Vistula Lagoon to Giewont, then through Gniezno to Sokółka—forms the symbolic sign of the cross on the map of Poland. This is not just a physical endeavor. It is an intense, personal prayer, a spiritual struggle, and a process of profound inner transformation.

In post-war Poland, Father Wladyslaw Gurgacz served the Fatherland. Several years later, he was sentenced to death for his actions.
