Contents/Summary
- Summary
- One of the most acclaimed Polish “cult” comedies, depicting the absurdities of everyday life in the late 70’s. The main character is the manager of a sports club, nicknamed "Teddy Bear" by his friends and acquaintances. One day he is detained at the border just as his team is off to a tournament - somebody has torn a few pages out of his passport. It occurs to him that his ex-wife might have done so to get her hands on their joint account in a London bank. Therefore, he has to get to London as soon as possible in order to transfer the money to a different bank. The solution is a movie, made by his friend. The script calls for a double role, and the search for Teddy Bear's doppelganger is advertised. The double has to apply for the passport, and this is arranged through a girlfriend who agrees to play the dope's new fiancée. At the engagement party they slip him a mickey, and Teddy Bear runs off to the airport with the false passport. On the plane, however, he meets his ex-wife. See Sylwester Chęciński "Controlled Conversations" for the follow-up on the story of Miś.
