In the organizer's words:

Vika! - Documentary film by Agnieszka Zwiefka - film screening followed by panel talk and DJ set - as part of "Fokus: Queer Art" - on May 8, 2025 at 8 pm - Schauspielhaus, Unterhaus

What does it mean to follow your dream and break with society's expectations? In the moving documentary "Vika!", the audience gets to know a protagonist who is finally starting to live for herself in old age. DJ Vika is 85 and the star of Warsaw's nightclubs. She refuses to grow old and sit at home. After retiring, she began to reinvent herself and only do what she is passionate about. She celebrates life and herself and enjoys music. For the first time in her life, Vika is living her dream.

"Vika!" is a movie about the value of life and the journey of self-discovery. It encourages you to take advantage of the different paths that life offers and to stay true to yourself.
