Andrzej Żuławski's Na srebrnym globie could have become one of the most groundbreaking sci-fi films in the history of cinema - even before George Lucas's Star Wars. The production momentum, star-studded cast, revolutionary costumes and set design promised a masterpiece. Why, then, did the cinema authorities of the People's Republic of Poland halt production two weeks before the end of shooting? What remains is a legendary film that continues to inspire filmmakers from all over the world and warms the emotions of the former crew members as strongly today as it did 40 years ago. Kuba Mikurda's Ucieczka na srebrny globę presents the greatest secret and unfulfilled dream of Polish cinema. The film also delves into private background of the making of the film—at the time Żuławski was freshly divorced from his first wife Małgorzata Braunek and working on the ambitious project was a kind of therapy for him.
