Michalina Wislocka, the most famous and recognized sexologist in communist Poland, fights for the right to publish her book, which will change the sex lives of Poles forever. During communist rule in Poland, a gynecologist and sexologist challenges society's taboos and fights to publish her revolutionary book on love and sex.
Footage... A wonderful biography of a woman way ahead of her time, smart, necessary and courageous... that film that every woman should watch, men too... "I am the sexual revolution. And I'm coming!" Probably Michalina suffered from autism, as both her daughter, Krysia, and her granddaughter were diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, which makes many of her attitudes understandable... Sincere, perfect production and deserved tribute... Passionate...

I watched this with my wife and we both enjoyed it. It depicted the serious struggle to get her works published in Poland...but did it using humour along the way.
I'm sure the story will be depicted in a documentary somewhere; so if that's how you want to learn about the subject it could be available.
For me I learnt about a serious subject and my learning journey was enjoyable and funny.
I highly recommend this movie

It's exciting to see such great films from all over the world, and this one is not just done well, but historically important.
This is the story of a Dr. who wants to publish her book on female sexuality in Polland during the 70s. If that is not interesting enough for you, this film is about a very different view of love, love as sexual satisfaction, love as a role in life, love as a moral value. With an amazing develop of the main characters, some humor, and quality in all production and direction departments, this film is a great respite for female sexuality.
This film brings a half-century of Poland history through the eyes of a doctor. The movie timing is not linear whats brings a screenplay freshness through the characters lives. The main one, doctor Michaliny Wislockiej spent her life trying to publish a book on female orgasm. For doing so, she received a lot of support from her female patients to publish it. But, the power relations between the church and the communist regime in Poland prevented the book to be released and the empowering of such a revolutionary doctor. The screenplay shows two separated and interconnected stories. The first one is about how to release a book on female sexual pleasure in the Eastern country communist regime. The second one tells us about the loves stories and sexual adventures where Michaliny was the protagonist. As she said in the book opening: "A blind can´t write about colors". Great film!
