A realistic, audacious and uncompromising film about young people and the problem, still valid even today, of growing up, sexually and psychologically. An intelligent and important voice in the discussion about sex, adulthood and responsibility. The authenticity of the story was emphasized by hiring debutants for the main roles, who at the time of filming were themselves at the age of the characters depicted in the film. For this reason, the underage Hanna Wolska had a double who replaced her in erotic scenes.
The only cinema production ever made by Zygmunt Hübner, a great actor, teacher and theater director.
A story of two teenagers who decide to embark on their “adult” life together, without fully understanding the consequences of their decision.
Ania and Tomek, a couple of technical school students, fall in love and start having sex. The young people are convinced that sexual maturity equals adulthood and that they are ready for a serious relationship. When the girl has to move out of the room she rents, they decide to move in together. They resort to cheating and when the truth comes out, they are universally condemned for their deed. They blackmail Ania’s parents to get help, but the gray reality is slowly killing their immature love. The girl gets bored and she looks for fun in a company of shady people. Eventually she learns it the hard way that sexual freedom can easily turn into violence.
