GINA

Nine-year-old Gina wants nothing more than a real family but her mother Gitte struggles with the day-to-day life as a single parent of 3 children – and a fourth is on it’s way. But Gina doesn’t give up and fights for what has been in disarray for generations: family stability, a climb out of the spiral of poverty, neglect, lovelessness and lack of education. A female three-generation family portrait from the perspective of a nine-year-old girl who doesn’t accept that her fate is predetermined and only depends on where you are born into.
