Jacki
Angelika Andrees
A perky 14-year-old girl at the centre of a lively, exhausting patchwork family model. The film stays close to its protagonists but indulges in quite a few digressions.

Andrees’ graduation project approaches the perky 14-year-old Jacki mainly through her social environment: the stressed patchwork family mother, the solitary long-distance truck driver father, the eclectic neighbourhood. The closer the film gets to its protagonists, the freer the movements of the camera become, gliding through a studio as if in a trance or flying over the nocturnal motorway as if over a UFO landing strip.
