With the use of music and picture, the film tells a universal story about the transience of nature and man. Life and the world, represented by Świdwie reserve, are seen through the eyes of a child, a youth and an adult. The protagonist not only observes but also listens to the sounds of nature, accompanies them, tries to join them, at the same time giving the viewer the freedom to receive and interpret sounds and pictures. The film is divided into parts using musical compositions, each one of which has a completely different character, role and message. 

The film is a 25-minute poetic impression to the music of Paweł Kornicz, a composer from Szczecin. The motto is to search for the wild nature of the white-tailed eagle in human. It is a kind of reversal of the traditional concept of perceiving this bird as a symbol in which we see “human” qualities, such as bravery, courage, loyalty and authority. The authors of the film, and above all – the actors, discover the animal predator, wildness, instinct, as well as sexual drive and sexuality in a man with the song of a white-tailed eagle. The most important artistic expression in this film is the dance. There are about 50 actors in the film. In the natural setting we will see, among others, members of the Gamelan Percussion Orchestra and many choristers.

Wild eyes, a dress stained with blood, a knife and an ax in his hands, and after a while a heartless murderer kills innocent victims. And for money! Is this what the ancient butchers were like? The Brotherhood of Singers from Tanowo recreated a guild song from the 19th century, which explains a lot. Hold on tight to your seat and immerse yourself in the terrifyingly real but oh-so-beautiful Butcher's Song. The Butcher's Ballad comes from the Songbook for Industrialists, Nadwiślanin Publishing House, 1895, Gniezno.
