Jerzy Skolimowski’s freewheeling debut about a man’s last day before military service.

Made at the Łódź Film School, thanks to planning student exercises so they could be combined into a coherent feature, Skolimowski’s debut introduced his freewheeling style and his alter ego Andrzej Leszczyc (played by the director not so much for egomania as guaranteed availability), who spends a final day of freedom before compulsory military service tying up some loose ends.
