ABOUT THE MOVIE

This is a story about one of the greatest athletes of all time. Darko Kralj is the only person in the history of sports to have broken a world record five times in a row in a single day at the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing. He was badly wounded in 1991, during the War in Croatia, with no signs of recovery. Today he lives with his three sons, the youngest one being very attached to him. This extraordinary story will tell us where Darko draws his vast energy from and what's the secret of his lust for life and success.
