Player: Mighty Waldi the First. Objective: gaming tournament. Obstacle: his crazy aunt. Fighting method: not giving up. This is the e-sports player's plan!
Diet noodles, cycling around the playground, lugging palm tree pots up the stairs… This is just part of the devilish plan of the unpredictable Aunt Mariolka, who takes Waldek under her care while his mother is away. The teenager is so fed up with his new responsibilities that his whole world of beloved computer games goes down the drain. On top of that, a mysterious player known as Ant, who is going to join the team, turns out to be – to his horror – A GIRL! Fortunately, she’s the girl of his dreams. As if this wasn't enough, his mum still treats him like a toddler and hides a secret… But Waldek has long since grown up and can see that life is like a game – sometimes you lose, and sometimes you win. The most important thing, however, goes: you have to do something, not do nothing!.
In the eyes of the festival programmer…
This is the Polish film I've been waiting for a long time – a lightweight yet original story dealing with important topics. On top of that, it is well-directed with some daring acting performances. May we have more of such films!
