"Mis," by Stanislaw Bareja, is one of the best and highest rated Polish comedies. With its plot tightly set in Polish reality, the film presents a skewed view on Polish society of the 1980s. The film's main plot is intertwined with grotesque and absurd situations from everyday life (exaggerated to fit the film's comedic purpose). The film focuses on Ryszard Ochodzki (Stanislaw Tym), a chairman of a sports-club, whose passport has been mysteriously damaged, which makes him unable to leave the country. He wants to get to London, where he is supposed to withdraw a large sum of money from his bank account. Unfortunately, he shares his bank account with his ex-wife, who also wants the cash. The bulk of the film follows Ochodzki's efforts to outsmart his wife, get a new passport and get to London as soon as possible. I have no words to describe the film's brilliance. While some of the jokes might be unfunny to non-Polish audiences, the film still makes for a fantastically comic viewing and a brilliant insight into the 1980s' Poland.
