Compulsory Figures

Julia Polniuk (10) trains figure skating and there is not much time left for her to succeed in sports and meet her family’s expectations…. After the Euromaidan Revolution the Polniuk family moved from Ukraine to Poland. They have begun a brand new life in Warsaw without good jobs nor money. Julia’s mother Marina (37) has only one goal in mind: to give her children a good start.

This year Julia has the opportunity to take part in the Polish Figure Skating Championships. This could bring her fame and success and maybe even help the whole family to obtain Polish citizenship, but can a child spread its wings and fly with such a burden on its shoulders?
