They call her Girl America (Amerikánka). Once a girl, now a woman, she grew up without parents in totalitarian Czechoslovakia. Surreal images blend with reality as we follow her struggle for redemption. How many times can you get back up after being knocked down? Orphaned under communism and placed in foster care, then detained in a juvenile facility. Until the Velvet Revolution. More than just a story of perseverance, the film is an emotional journey that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of hope. The hope of one day escaping to America and reuniting with her father.
