Le film revient sur la carrière d'Hergé, mais surtout sur l'homme qu'il était, en mettant en image de nombreux extraits des bandes son originales des entretiens avec Numa Sadoul. La mise en scène, volontairement sobre, est accompagné de diverses images d'archives et d'entretiens avec des spécialistes et amis d'Hergé. Les divers entretiens avec des critiques suivent tous la même scénographie : ils se déplace dans une salle entièrement pavée de planches, s'arrêtent, les commentent, jusqu'à ce que la caméra aille se placer au-dessus d'eux, révélant les preneurs de sons, chef opérateurs, etc.
