Story

Set in 1969, One Way Ticket to the Moon centers on two brothers as they travel across Poland in search of a few instant life experiences.
When Adam is drafted into the Polish army and is sent to serve in the submarine section of the Navy, he sets off for the military base in Swinoujscie, along with his older brother Antoni. The two head for the Polish coast, a journey across Poland lasting several days and bringing about visits with old friends, as well as new acquaintances. Antoni’s plan is to make sure that the trip prepares his younger brother for life in the army – including losing his virginity – to avoid becoming the laughingstock of the unit.
