Director Georgiy Daneliya's existential Soviet-era sci-fi comedy about two average Muscovites - a plainspoken construction foreman (Stanislav Lyubshin) and a Georgian violin student (Levan Gabriadze) - who are mysteriously teleported across the universe to the planet Pluke, a desert world whose words for "good" and "bad" are the same and where common wooden matches are tremendously valuable.
