A TURBULENT ROAD MOVIE FULL OF BIZARRE MOMENTS TOLD WITH PLENTY OF HUMOR ABOUT FAMILY AND FRIENDSHIP

Astronomy is Ulja’s grea­test pas­si­on. Even in the children’s ser­vice of her Russian-German parish, her enthu­si­asm for sci­ence is unstoppable. There she pre­dicts the crash of a meteo­ri­te she dis­co­ver­ed in Belarus, but no one wants to belie­ve her. So, wit­hout fur­ther ado, the 12-year-old and her class­ma­te Henk set off for the East in a dis­card­ed hear­se to obser­ve the crash of the meteo­ri­te. However, her fami­ly, the pas­tor and half of the parish are hot on their heels. With ple­nty of wit and pace, this tur­bu­lent and amusing road movie is an enjoya­ble enter­tain­ment for all ages.
