Polanski, en la película que dirige Laurent Bouzereau, habla de él y de su obra desde su casa de Gstaad (Suiza) en una entrevista que duró unas quince horas con su amigo, el productor británico Andrew Braunsberg. El documental se detiene con minuciosidad en la infancia del director franco-polaco, que Polanski cuenta desde el salón de su chalet suizo durante la detención domiciliaria dictada contra él en 2009 y que precedió a la decisión de la Justicia helvética de no extraditarle a Estados Unidos. El episodio de sus relaciones sexuales con Samantha Gaimer en 1977, que entonces tenía 13 años y por el que se reclamaba su envío a EE.UU., se repasa en el filme, con las declaraciones de la mujer en las que perdonó a Polanski y dijo comprender el asedio de los "paparazzi", que ella también dijo haber sufrido. La cinta aborda con detalle los primeros años de la vida del realizador e ilustra con pasajes de sus filmes el vínculo entre detalles personales y escenas de algunas de sus películas.
Roman Polanski lived in Cracow/Krakow during 1936-1955 - almost 20 years of his life. These years formed him to become one of the most popular film directors of the world. The title of the documentary refers to Roman Polanski's autobiography "Roman by Polanski". By the end of 1930's Cracow/Krakow 250 000 inhabitants, about 50 000 were Jews. It was one of the happiest time in young Roman's life. WWII made him leave the Cracow ghetto and he was hidden by a Polish family near the city. After the war till 1955, it was not only the hard Stalin's time but also the time when young Roman discovered his passion for art, especially the cinema. In these times he played in social realistic plays in Young Spectator Theatre and in puppet plays in Groteska Theatre, Cracow. Finally he left Cracow for Lodz in 1955 to study directing at the Film Academy.
