    • Synopsis
    • The world of kid karting is fascinating and at the same time raises many questions. This little-known extreme sport is governed by the same rules as competitions for adults – what matters is rivalry, a place on the podium and regular training. Not all children are ready for such a sacrifice. Mateusz has been practicing karting for a few years but he still does not meet the expectations and ambitions of his parents. Zosia has a talent and a supportive father but his problems with the law may hamper her further career. The film is not just a story about emotions in sports but, above all, about family relations.
