Synopsis

In the distant year 1999, a group of terrorist physicists drop nuclear “G-bombs” that render all women bearded and infertile (though still buxom) — a situation which is both scratchy and detrimental to the survival of the human race. So the world’s greatest scientific minds come up with a foolproof plan: build a time machine, travel back to 1911 and kill Albert Einstein (Petr Cepek) before he can concoct the theories that paved the way for nuclear technology. Mishaps, hijinks and drastic alterations in the space-time continuum naturally ensue in Oldrich Lipsky’s hilariously lowbrow sci-fi comedy. —TIFF Bell Lightbox

Director

Original

Oldřich Lipský

Oldřich Lipský (Juli 4, 1924, Pelhřimov – October 19, 1986, Prague) was a popular and influential Czech film director, brother of actor Lubomír Lipský.

Czechoslovakian filmmaker Oldrich Lipsky is best known for his satires and comedies, particularly his gentle spoof on American westerns Lemonade Joe (1966). During WW II, Lipsky spent time in a work camp. Later he attended Charles University in Prague and studied philosophy, later working as an artistic director at Prague’s Satirical Theater. Lipsky then worked as an actor and screenwriter in the early ’50s becoming a director in 1954. —allmovie guide
