action
Jacek is a young cabaret artist and artist based in Gdansk . On the street he met the young French woman Margueritte and fell in love with her. They make an appointment to play tennis the next day. Jacek claims that he is a very good tennis player. The young French woman Margueritte is the daughter of the French consul in Gdansk, who spends her summer holidays with her father. The next day, however, it turns out that he is playing for the first time and barely hits a ball. They finish the game quickly and when the very good tennis players Jurek and Romek join them, Margueritte loses interest in Jacek, who then withdraws, not without giving a little boy a doll with the request to give it to Margueritte. The boy receives ten złoty for this , but gives Margueritte the doll and the ten złoty, which irritates the girl.
Margueritte later meets regularly with Jurek, but also meets Jacek again and again, for example at a student cabaret show in which Jacek takes part. Jacek manages to meet Margueritte in Sopot . He gives her little lessons in the Polish language and shows her Gdansk. They come closer for the first time in a rain shower. They visit the Marienkirche in Gdańsk and play their own wedding. Jacek fantasizes about a close relationship with Margueritte. To the girl, however, this relationship appears to be narrowing. She finally withdraws and no longer meets with Jacek, who now spends the nights straying through Gdansk, slightly drunk and also neglecting his cabaret group. Margueritte is looking for him, but cannot find him. When the two still find each other, they arrange to meet again for the next day. But when Jacek comes to the consul's villa in the morning to pick up Margueritte, the consul's move out is in full swing. Margueritte has left. Jacek returns to his cabaret group and tries to recreate his experiences with fellow actor Joasia. His friend watches the scene and finds it too sweet.
background
The popular Polish actor Zbigniew Cybulski wrote the script after his own experiences. In the 1950s, as the director, director and actor of the Gdańsk cabaret Bim-Bom, he actually met the daughter of the French consul, who spent the summer holidays in Gdańsk and Sopot between 1956 and 1960. In addition to the young actors, the atmosphere of the city of Gdansk, which was just rebuilt after the war, is the main actor in the film. It also gives an insight into the fresh life of the students at that time in jazz clubs, cabarets and their student dormitories. The jazz musician Krzysztof Komeda not only wrote the film music, but can also be seen as a pianist in a jazz club.
Reviews
“A student in Gdansk falls in love with the daughter of a French diplomat, who flirts with him but doesn't turn away his fellow students either. Cheerful, wistful love story. "
