The window into the world used to be television. Now there's YouTube. A portal that features the heroes of today – youtubers. From ordinary people we have artists and showmen unafraid of becoming public figures. Media stars that have created a work of art just by showing others how they live. The filmmaker spent a year among the best youtubers, as well as with newcomers, and tried to understand what drives them – what makes them publicly expose themselves to the public, what their motivation is, and whether they actually have anything to say.
