DESCRIPTION

Is life a collection of accidental events that define you or is there some driving force behind everything? The film asks this question accompanying a girl with polio and watching her growing up to an exceptional person. “Janka” is an intimate portrait of Janina Ochojska - founder of the Polish Humanitarian Action. Animation intertwines with the document, the past with the present. Childhood determined by a serious illness leads the heroine to a unique approach to life.
