Vika!

Age is just a number! At 84 years old, Vika is the undisputed star of the Warsaw club scene. During her charismatic performances as a DJ, young people cheer and admire her. With her attitude, she is far removed from all the stereotypes associated with old age. Her life is filled with music, dance and unbridled joie de vivre. But there are also downsides: lonely moments and the – not very good – relationship to her children. Vika has to deal with getting older. The film is a bittersweet story about a woman who has consistently gone her own way, who fights for her dreams and who will celebrate her life until the end. It gives you courage! (Braunschweig International Film Festival)
