Magdalena
Magdalena is a young woman who doesn’t speak – she communicates with the world through music. At night she tries her hand at a club, dreaming of a carrier of an international DJ. During the day, she takes care of her five years old daughter, whom she raises with her mother. Due to her disability it’s hard for her to find and maintain a job, moreover, disagreements with her mother lead to tensions at home. When she meets a well-known DJ – Julia, who takes her under her wing, Magdalena starts to believe, everything is going to be just fine. Unfortunately the difficult past, Magdalena keeps on running from, is still going after her. The girl faces the hardest choice yet: the daughter of the carrier?
