The film follows the adventurous journeys and experiences of the Jewish, German-Australian writer all over the world: Germany, USA, Israel, Cuba, Japan, Northern Ireland, Australia. Since his youth, Walter Kaufmann has sided with the persecuted, disenfranchised, and humiliated on earth. His thirst for adventure is an expression of a cosmopolitan spirit.
