Through Siberia, Lake Baikal, Mongolia, Tibet, Himalayas, 4000 kilometers of escape, through snowfields, forests, deserts, Gobi, snow-capped mountains. Among them, the human feelings are warm and cold, the human nature is revealed, and the test of the darkest and brightest spirits of human beings. This is a hymn to vitality, an examination of human nature. Among them are priests, painters, American engineers, murderers, Polish soldiers, accountants, little girls whose families were persecuted by the government, and they worked together to create the miracle of life. Although some of them lost their lives on the way, as the film says, he die as free man, and free man he is. Everyone has his own story, his own ideals, and the kind Polish Janusz forgives his wife who betrayed him , the priest fights against securities in order to join the war again, the accountant is for freedom and friendship, the little girl has a longing for the future and kindness of humanity, the murderer also has a nostalgia for the motherland and the desire to survive, and the painter is for ideals and art. Only when life is truly tested will people know what they really want.

A peaceful and happy world may make us too greedy and forget the simple spirit of human beings. When all the shells are taken off, what are we left? When you, me, and him face each other naked, are we still pure? kind. When I think about these questions, I am apprehensive about the world in which material life is becoming more and more fulfilling.
