In Zakopane, as in other parts of Poland under partitions, people waited for the opportunity to declare independence. On October 13, 1918, a civic assembly was held. Five hundred participants chose a 32-member board, headed by Stefan eromski. On October 31, just one day before Kraków, Zakopane declared independence. The Commonwealth of Zakopane was established, with Stefan eromski as the president. Zakopane became the first piece of independent Poland.

In 1959, the famous Jazz Camping Kalatówki took place. Nearly 70 people came to Kalatówki. After the second congress in 1960, there was a long break. The event was resumed in 1977 thanks to Marta ukaszczyk, the head of the Górski Hotel PTTK Kalatówki, and Magorzata and Zbigniew Namysowski. The film presents the memories of living participants of the first Jazz Camping Kalatówki, as well as subsequent conventions and archival recordings: film and audio, photographs, posters and music.
