AmbaSSada ("The EmbaSSy") is a 2013 Polish time travel comedy movie, directed by Juliusz Machulski.In modern-day Warsaw, a young Polish couple, Melania ("Mela") and Przemek, are house-sitting in an apartment building which, back in the inter-war period, was the site of the German embassy. One day, the protagonists find out that the third-floor button in the building's elevator delivers them directly to the past era—specifically, to August 1939, right before the outbreak of World War II. Things get hairy as the Nazis find out about the mysterious time portal, and decide to use it to ensure that World War II goes their way. Przemek and Mela must find a way to stop them, with the help of Przemek's ancestor, a secret agent of the Polish intelligence.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

Bittersweet Ending: The protagonists successfully prevent World War II (and the subsequent Communist takeover of Poland), but Przemek gets permanently stranded in 1939. However, it's apparently not so bad for him since he starts a new life with Inge and manages to publish a bestselling book.

Cold-Blooded Torture: After kidnapping Hitler, the protagonists proceed to torture him in an attempt to get him to call off the war. In addition, Melania gives him extra torture in revenge for the atrocities committed by Nazis in World War II (which is probably Bewildering Punishment for Hitler, seeing as none of these things have yet happened from his perspective.)

Bait-and-Switch: Near the beginning of the movie, Przemek and Mela discover that a room in their apartment building has a Nazi office in it, and soon, a very angry Gestapo officer comes into their house. It looks like the movie's advertised time travel plot has started... but it turns out to be a prank played by Mela and her actor friends. Then the actual plot begins...
