Klára's expedition represents not only unusual sports performance and success but it is also a story of an invincible will, desire, and the effort to achieve her desired goal. What drives the woman, the wife, and the mother of two children to go through this deadly challenge? Where is the boundary to her rights to achieve her personal dream? Could women be as selfish as men in terms of achieving their private goals? The answers to these questions are portrayed in the film as well as the perspective of the unique path to the K2 summit. For two years, the main heroine and the director shared a period of difficult preparations, doubts, difficult farewells, a crisis, and a previous unsuccessful attempt. Jana Poctová, together with the cameraman, captured the atmosphere and events of the expedition to the base camp, the film contains breathtaking shots of the mountains and Klára's authentic shots from the final climb itself.
