Two men participate in a scientific experiment – one for profit, the other for science. They are to be frozen for 3 years. But they awake half a century later, in a world where men are entirely extinct as the result of a war. As relics of the past they become extraordinary subjects for study, but their charm begins to remind women what they lost. When they find out they are to undergo a sex-change operation they run away and discover the reality of life beyond the “base”. They sabotage the “breeding facility” and new boys are born.

Juliusz Machulski’s cult comedy, still a blockbuster of Polish cinema is not only a pastiche of the sci-fi genre but also a metaphor for a totalitarian regime, a satire on the reality of martial law in Poland.
