This documentary is based on the book The Gospel according to Brabenec. Everything written in this book can be useful for the film. Important things has been said, but the most important things haven't been said yet. For example, the leader of Plastic people of the Universe is not made for this time. He is a man, who refuses to change himself to go with the flow, he doesn't visit shopping malls, doesn't use the computer and doesn't stand in the queues. He lives in his own way, which means many people see him as a vagabond, drunkard, somebody not worth their time. Youngsters throw eggs at him in the streets. Vráťa Brabenec is a legend, but nobody cares for legends of underground these times. Brabenec is not worried about this, he worries about the time we live in. He doesn't need money and medals, but he is sick of former prominents who are better off now than during the totalitarianism. And nobody even cares. Because shops are still full of people.
