Under a cloudless sky, Hansi Hinterseer hosts a communal mountain fair in the alpine idyll of Kitzbühel. Observing – with- out judgment – the camera follows along amidst the throng of fans, waiting patiently for the revered skiing and entertain- ment legend to appear. Eventually Hansi does emerge, and proceeds to sing, pray and bring people together. This is a film about a movement, of both the body and the mind.
