A young soldier in 1919 enters a health spa sanatorium as a female nurse to escape from marauding enemy soldiers. All rather surreal, but he is in female mode for most of the film; quite pretty too (on the left in the pic).
We see him as a man in a brief sex scene.
The original Hungarian title is Herkules fürdöi emlék, released also with English subtitles, and also released under the alternative titles of Strange Masquerade and A Strange Role.
Stephen Murray adds:
At the beginning of the film we see wanted posters of the hero as a male while he steps off a train dressed as a woman. It's never made explicit, but this is connected with the Bela Kun communist uprising after World War I we presume that the hero was wanted for his part in this, and it would have made him heroic in 1970s communist Hungary when the film was made.
The hero(ine) is played by Endre Holman (IMDb misspells it as Holmann) who was a medical student at the time. There is a noted urologist of the same name in Budapest. I wonder if it's the same person?
The Hungarian title means Remembrance of the Hercules Health Spa.
