Hydrozagadka is a Polish superhero comedy film. The movie was ostensibly created as a Communist parody of the American ideals glorified in Superman and other superhero films, however Polish audiences instead felt that the film humorously parodied aspects of Polish life under Communist rule, such as the many slogans for a "better life." Hydrozagadka premiered on 30 April 1971 on Polish television.
