The film starts from the position close to the literary inspiration suggested in the title, but rather from developing it in the same manner as the novel it is used as a witty commentary on the political situation of Poland in the period of the Polish People's Republic.

Après l'apocalypse nucléaire, l'humanité est partagée en deux groupes : les « positifs » qui ont conservé la faculté de faire l'amour et la grande majorité des « négatifs » qui sont devenus impuissants. Pour accéder à un succédané de plaisir, ces derniers n'ont plus d'alternative que de regarder les « positifs » se donner en spectacle sur des scènes de théâtre telles que celle du Café Flesh. Les « positifs » sont tellement rares que lorsqu'ils sont découverts, ils ne peuvent se soustraire à ces spectacles et sont traités comme des esclaves de façon similaire aux gladiateurs de la Rome antique.
