The film depicts a recent film school graduate, Agnieszka, who is ambitious and determined to make a biographical documentary about the model worker Burkot from the 1950s as her graduation thesis. To understand how the protagonist became a model worker, was later accused and convicted, and eventually restored to honor, Agnieszka conducted extensive research and gathered information, interviewing key figures from that historical period. She ultimately found Burkot's son and learned that the hero once known as the Marble Man had died. Not even his name is inscribed on the gravestone in the cemetery. "Burkot lost his life during the worker unrest at the Gdańsk shipyard. No trace of him could be found. From then on, the Marble Man became a ghost." The film's subject matter is quite bold, and the ending explanation of the protagonist's fate was once subjected to cuts. Aimed at exposing the destruction of humanity and the deception of innocent people by a regime that suppresses freedom through the myth of model workers created by a national propaganda machine, it presents a harsh reality in a documentary style reminiscent of the situation in the 1970s. This film led to Wałysa being banned from filmmaking for many years, but he still shot a sequel (Man of Iron) years later.
