On September 19, 1991, the Similaun Glacier in the Ötztal Alps revealed its secret after more than 5,000 years : the mummified body of a Stone Age man , completely preserved with clothing, weapons, and tools. A sensational archaeological discovery that, as Ötzi, made history worldwide.

The Austrian nature filmmaker Kurt Mündel reconstructs the life of this man on the basis of reliable findings in an impressive documentary – as an approximation of a possible life thousands of years ago.

Otto M. Schwarz takes this cinematic retelling as an opportunity to resurrect the Iceman in powerful program music . His work for symphonic wind orchestra depicts scenes from a long-gone world – moving, vivid, and full of suspense.

A captivating concert piece from an ancient history. Our history.
