An adaptation of Stanisław Lem's radio play "Czy pan istnieje, Mr. Jones?" (Do You Exist, Mr. Jones?) is a story of two brothers Joneses, Thomas and Richard, car racers, who had a terrible car accident and problems arising due to multiple organ transplantations. It sounds serious, but actually it is a nice comedy with a twist in the end...

The film is a rare film when Author was actually pleased with an adaptation of his work.
