Shift Drivers

1980s Polish tv comedy series

Freak accident tangles the lives of Kasia and Jacek as they become partners in driving the taxi in Warsaw on odd shifts. But Jacek doesn’t realize that Kasia is a girl since she pretends to be a man to keep the job.

Series developed by genius of Polish comedy Stanislaw Bareja, but not as successful as his other productions (like 4 Alternative Street or Teddy Bear), mostly because he was only partly involved in this project. It is sometimes bitter-sweet story of Kasia, who decides that her only chance to get her dream job of taxi driver is to pretend to be a man. The few plots that are running
in parallel are interesting, some of them rather entertaining, but not always funny. The comic part is sometimes missing and the atmosphere is slowed down by romantic parts of the story.
