Nikodem Dyzma is a 1956 Polish political comedy film directed by Jan Rybkowski. It is based on the 1932 political novel Kariera Nikodema Dyzmy by Tadeusz Dołęga-Mostowicz.

Nikodem Dyzma, a street wretch without a job or a roof over his head (owning just his tailcoat), tries to get a job in one of the nightclubs, the owner of which declares that he is not suitable for this job because he is too provincial. As luck would have it, he finds an invitation to a certain elegant ball on the street, to which he decides to return the invitation, counting on a modest tip. Meanwhile, he is mistaken for one of the guests, and thanks to his rather peculiar behavior, he soon becomes the president of a public sector bank.
