When the filmmakers heard from documentary and comedy filmmaker Józef Gębski that 'somewhere around the year 2000, the old cinema ended', they decided to set out in his footsteps in search of the 'new'. This is how they ended up in Paris, where Gębski met the great Jacques Tati in 1977. In this documentary, Jozef Gębski turns into a film theorist and historian. He traces its evolution from the beginnings of cinema and the works of the Lumière brothers, through the New Wave revolution, to the 21st century 'third cinema' in which anyone can be a filmmaker. It also looks at what kind of cinema is 'born before our eyes'.

Leon Bukowiecki is an extremely colourful personality of the Polish film milieu. A well-known and distinguished critic, one of the founders of the Film Weekly, creator of the Film Discussion Clubs, and a great lover of cinema, he talks about how, as a child, he was bitten by the X Muse bug and devoted his entire life to it, watching an average of 4-5 films a day. Good and bad films - because he felt obliged to watch the worse ones too. This meant that, years later, he could proudly describe himself as the 'most filmic' man among those he knew.
