Brave, funny, and one of a kind: that´s Rocca. Rocca is eleven years old and lives a rather unique life. While her dad is watching over her as an astronaut from outer space, Rocca lives alone with her squirrel and is attending a normal school for the first time in her life. At school her carefree and non-conformist way of life instantly stands out. She fearlessly confronts the class bullies, because first and foremost Rocca stands up for justice. That´s why she makes friends with the homeless Caspar and tries to help him. All the while she is also attempting to win over her grandmother´s heart. With never-ending optimism, Rocca proves - together with her new friends - that even a child has the power to change the world. (Festival information, Zlin, 2019)
