First Andrzej Kondratiuk’s television short movie is a beach happening recorded with a hidden camera. It’s main performer was a popular actor, Bogumił Kobiela. The actor appears on a beach in Sopot, and begins a “live” provocation, for example dresses a winter overalls and makes a walk wearing ski, collects enormous shells (where did they get from in Baltic See?), he convinces fisherman, that fishing is not fair and few minutes later parades along the beach with a great flounder, and so on. Fantastic movie full of always current, absurd humor.
