In What matters most is how well you walk through the fire by Stigespillerne the texts can be said to describe the world seen from the side of the person having chosen the life of the loser. Bukowski often describes the feeling of standing outside. His poems consist of a partly raw language, but behind the roughness of the words, a sense of vulnerability is clear, as is recognisable wonder over the turns of life.

What matters most is how well you walk through the fire uses film as a scenographic mood-creating element, plus a backdrop of sound made by André of Norway.
