- DJ Vika! - DJ Vika!

I'd love to have a grandma like you.

So cool!

You are a hell of a woman!

Take a picture of us, okay?

Awesome! We respect you so much!

Can I have a picture?

My grandchildren. I'll adopt you all.

Vika! Vika! Vika!

Yes.

Scold someone! That's it!

And now shoot!

Cool! Awesome!

You're a space girl.

- Well! - Now things are going to happen.

I told myself I wouldn't be that old person,

who just sits around like a plant in the window.

I'll just show that it's possible to live in a different way.

Wonderful! Wow, what a firecracker!

Do you work standing up?

I play all night, until 4 or 5 am.

I started DJ-ing when I retired. I'm a special education teacher.

I worked for 30 years in a juvenile prison, behind bars!

When I was hired, they said:

"A young lady? In here? In a shithole like this? Go to TV, miss."

I said, "No, I want to be here. Will you take me?"

He gave me two weeks to prove myself.

And I stayed.

Later, I became the manager, then director of the facility.

And then I retired.

Incredible.

You want to turn an 80-year-old granny into a model, my dear?

My husband will be turning in his grave.

This is great.

- That could... - It's great.

Toilet granny!

EQUALITY TOLERANCE

Welcome to my cave.

This is the first time I've seen such a professional studio.

This is a synthesizer...

- For special effects? - For...

Is it? For special effects?

Not only, you can also play on it.

Oh, very avant-garde!

And release.

At the start of the beat, release it.

Basic dance scratch. And here.

Good. That's good.

Vika and Warsaw.

The Vistula...

Vistula, Vika, Warsaw.

Right.

And smile.

- You have grandchildren, don't you? - I do, my dear.

My grandson is your age.

- Does he come to your parties? - That's why I say you're my grandson.

Do you ever see them at parties?

They don't have time, you know.

They're a completely different species.

I think my granddaughter is even a little ashamed.

Ashamed of me.

We're not that close, it's hard for me to say.

But I don't want to buy relationships.

I leave it all to nature.

You can't force it.

- Ho, ho, ho! - Hi, hello.

- What a lovely scent. - Me?

My borrowed husband.

Hi!

Drowning in aftershave.

Hi, Vika. Where were you? I was ringing the bell.

I was just deaf.

Okay.

Right.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to welcome Mrs. Szmyt,

known also as DJ Vika in the, let's say, world of entertainment.

She is considered to be the oldest DJ in Poland.

Sometimes, I used to wonder

if it's possible to do anything at all at this age.

We are closer to the end than the beginning.

That's why I don't think about it,

because when I look at my date of birth, I wonder how long I can keep going.

The other day, I couldn't get out of the bathtub.

So I rolled over onto my belly, pulled myself up with my elbows

and somehow got out.

After all, was I supposed to call my neighbour

to come and get me out of the bath? I had to learn to do it all myself.

Because there's no one else around.

I don't tell anyone about my suffering,

I don't think one should.

It's better to sell yourself as being healthy, right?

That you can cope with it all,

and having a quiet cry at home won't hurt either.

- I hate looking at old people! - You can hate that all you want,

you just look into a mirror and there you are.

I show old age by being old myself.

I have the courage to show myself.

- To live in public, but I try... - You don't have to show it.

No, we need to show it. You can't run away from old age, madam.

We're the ones who can show it in a beautiful way.

We're not getting any younger, my dears. Just older.

Without a mirror, you can't see it.

But my dear, we look in the mirror every day and we just have to love ourselves

the way we are, as we will have a healthier life then.

And you are a beautiful woman, truly.

- I'd rather play for the gays. - For sure. Come on, your turn.

I prefer to look at the young, because when I look at them,

I think I still have plenty of time.

And when I look at old people,

I'm like, "Damn, how much of this life do I have left?"

If you look at them,

you don't know if you'll manage to do all the things you still want to.

I can't find the right spot, damn it.

It's not that easy, girl.

- Look what's going on! - We'll be late. Damn it.

We'll manage somehow.

What if they throw tomatoes at us?

I can deal with tomatoes, I hope they won't throw fucking stones at us.

Listen to this... We'll start with this one.

It'll get everyone dancing.

- Get them on the dance floor. - Okay.

Please come up to the dance floor. Gentlemen, invite the ladies.

Those who dance never grow old. Come on up, everyone.

Cool. Smile.

- Great, have a look. - Now my turn.

Done? And one more.

Look, "Paradise". Cafe and dancing.

- I wonder if they hold dances. - Why don't we go?

But I don't know if they have dance evenings in resorts like this.

- When I was in Szczawno... - I thought it was a funeral home, this...

Vika, your associations amaze me.

Oh, it's simply a natural medicine spa.

When I'm around people,

I look at the different relationships in families.

Some children take their mothers on vacation.

And when I ask what it was like,

they say, "The kids invited me to lunch today." And things like that.

As for my grandchildren, I don't blame them...

No, absolutely not.

But I don't get calls every month.

More like once every six months or so.

- That's not often. Once every six months? - Yes, it's not every week, not at all.

I didn't have the possibility to devote time to my grandchildren.

Because of my work or trips abroad when they were growing up.

I never had a life where I could take care of my grandchildren.

There's no explanation for her lack of interest

or the fact that she never calls or visits you.

There are no excuses.

Well, that's why I don't get involved.

Besides, I've been thinking,

about old age,

that...

no matter how close the relationship is,

old age is always a problem.

An old person is a kind of problem,

a burden for young people.

A bit of a headache.

A burden.

You have reached the voicemail, leave your message at the tone.

Bye-bye, my love.

Bye.

Bye, I'm going.

What a person needs most in life

is most certainly tenderness.

But a tenderness...

A kind of tenderness, that you can no longer...

That you can no longer have.

You just can't.

If your partner's gone, it's a tough time.

Yes...

And then I remember I'm old...

which I forget...

when I'm DJ-ing.

- Will you use this to cover yourself? - I will a little, yes.

I just remembered a joke.

A drunk boy goes to bed with a girl.

He wakes up the next morning

and looks at her, but she's so old, wrinkled, ugly.

He asks, "How old are you?"

"How old do I look?"

And he says, "People don't live that long."

That's why I don't have affairs.

But is it a good thing?

Time will tell.

If you're fit, then okay, but after that...

What I'm most afraid, though...

is an illness that will make me dependent on someone.

It can't go up yet as it's still warming up.

A balloon requires patience.

Not the way they're doing it. Because this one is already broken.

- It won't fly... - It won't.

It just won't.

Wooh, go on. That's it, fly!

Bravo, bravo!

It's flying!

See? It's up!

Honey,

look here.

Look at how beautiful it is, see.

That's what I wanted to capture,

along with you.

Put your coat on.

Baby, put your coat on, please.

But I'm hot, sweetie.

- Please put it on. - Stop it, I'm boiling.

You'll get a cold.

So she gets a cold, so what?

And if she gets the shits, so what? For God's sake!

I don't get you. Are you fucked up, Krzysztof?

I see what's going on with her.

And what is that?

You're not here for pleasure or a vacation.

- You're here to work. - And what am I doing? Relaxing?

You're not, I just don't like your mood. I can't stand it.

I'm here, hooking it all up. What else do you want?

- Just be normal. - I am normal.

You're grumpy and passive aggressive. It's irritating.

Vika, I'm normal, stop it.

- Don't make a scene. - I've had enough.

You're being aggressive, uptight and fucked up all around!

You need to be calm and focused here, think about what you're playing and all.

You didn't even bother to ask what we're playing.

It's just "honey bunny, fucking dummy!"

Wait, wait, wait. Play by yourself, for fuck's sake.

It's too much for me.

It pisses me off, pardon my French.

- But one thing I can tell you for sure. - Yes?

It's my last trip with her.

Fucking hell. Holy shit.

Happy birthday, Mom.

Long may you have such strength.

Just remember too that you can't do it all.

It just seems that way.

So relax, always find some time to rest.

I don't have time to rest.

We may not have the very close contact that some other families do,

where family members are nearly addicted to one another.

But I'm fine with what we have.

I am.

And that's it, that's enough for me.

I have my own life.

I am so busy and pre-occupied,

that I simply don't have time to come to your homes unannounced.

Sometimes I'm sad,

but then I look at others who are worse off,

and that feeling goes away, no problem.

That's why it is what it is.

- Happy birthday! - Are you guys all right in the head?

Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you

- Well, I never! - Vika, my dearest!

I'll kill you all for this.

Bravo, beautiful!

Well, I never!

My little star... The most beautiful 18-year-old!

- Here you go. - It's from us.

How much are the little ones?

These are 60 each.

- Beautiful. - Very pretty, yes.

- Expecting a lot of gifts? - Excuse me?

- Expecting lots of gifts? - Just two tins of cat food.

Oh boy!

Oh my goodness, wait a minute.

What kind of tree has needles like this?

Damn it.

I'm not going to lose my life over this crap, damn it!

I won't have a Christmas tree.

Right, I just need to...

Oh, hello!

I knew it was you, I knew it!

- How was your trip? - Ah, you know.

I knew it was you. I wondered if I'd recognise you.

Damn, I'm not dressed up for a party.

But I remembered that you looked very nice.

I did remember that.

I left in 1946.

I remembered the Gate of Dawn as being much bigger.

- But it's quite modest. - That's true.

And how do you find Vilnius nowadays?

A little sad. Maybe it's the weather.

After all, it was wartime back then.

Many people were moving around, with all their belongings.

It was a very different atmosphere.

Look, there are no people here.

Maybe everyone's getting ready for the party?

Cleaning their shoes.

Hey, Vilnius! Give us a warm welcome!

Welcome the queen of the dance floor.

DJ Vika!

DJ Vika is from Vilnius.

It's her hometown.

So give a big round of applause to the queen!

The one and only!

I love you! I love you!

We love you! We love you!

- Thank you, sweetheart. - It was great.

It was so smooth.

- Really cool. - It's great playing with you, you know?

Oh, thank you!

Do you have a coat?

Yes, always.

I used to reach up here.

Standing on tiptoes to see the doll below.

I lived behind a closet.

I lived there for quite a long time.

I left only in the evenings.

In Vilnus I lived in four places, I think.

All these memories are just fragments, it was all very sad.

Very sad fragments. All of them.

All of them. Like sitting in the closet, in the basement and all that.

If anyone knocked on the door, we wouldn't open it at all.

So you know, it wasn't easy.

I don't have memories that...

that are happy memories, not at all.

My family died in the war.

I have no brothers, sisters, aunts, cousins.

I always longed to have them, but I didn't.

Maybe that's why my relationships don't work,

why my very close contacts fail, because I never had a family.

Ladies and gentlemen,

in connection with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic

please stay at home for your own safety.

We urge you to stay at home.

Be responsible for each other,

not just today and tomorrow,

but throughout the epidemic.

The health and lives of our loved ones depends on it.

Covid-19 is a real and global threat.

Today, we have decided to cancel all mass events.

I didn't know I had so many. Dear God!

OLD AGE IS JUST MY COAT

It's not all that simple.

Well...

Aren't I getting up nicely?

Oh, fuck... Holy shit. Ouch!

Things aren't like we think.

Oh fuck!

Hi Mom.

Are you back from Zielona Góra?

I'm back, but I don't want to talk on the phone.

I don't want to...

- You don't feel like it? - But we're back.

I don't feel like it.

Ah, okay.

- Bye then. - See you later. Bye.

There's nothing left

Nothing to run for

There's nothing left

Nothing to desire

There's nothing left Nothing, nothing

That gives you something to live for

Nest stop: Central Station.

New times, new me.

You're so lovely, my dear!

Thank you! Straight from your garden?

- From the one downstairs. - Thank you, my dear. Come on in.

Hi, sweetheart. Hi.

- This is your tea, here you go. - Great.

Let it brew for a moment.

I've got apple pie, and another cake too.

Are we on the air now?

Hello, hi!

It's Marcin and Vika here.

Hello.

I think we are ready. Is it fine?

- The... - It is all set. You wanna join?

Well, I'll be damned.

- The cat switched off the broadcast. - He's not that easy to live with.

Thank you Saudi Arabia, Emirates!

Thanks for being with us and dancing! Hope you enjoyed it.

Damn it, how do you put this shit on. Hang on.

Duduś!

Wait, did I put it on right or wrong?

I think it's wrong. Shit, it's wrong.

Wait a minute. Damn this thing.

Here's this damn thing, where's this fucking thing?

No fucking way, bloody hell. How do you put this shit on?

Here!

Holy shit.

Shit, I forgot the code.

I have to...

Damn it.

Dear Jesus...

I really have to...

- I can do it for you. - Oh, my dear, I forgot the code.

- Like this? - Hang on, don't get it tangled.

Come on, move it.

- This needs to go higher. Does it hurt? - It hurts like hell.

Damn it, I put it in the wrong hole.

Does it hurt that much?

A bit more, a bit more. That's it.

Is it okay now?

Yes.

If it were just millimetres to the side...

it would mean hospital and surgery.

- Weeks in hospital. At my age... - Don't even say that.

You were really lucky.

- That you know... - I'd never leave the hospital at this age.

Maybe in a coffin.

I've had some thoughts recently, let me tell you.

About stepping back from public life.

I'm just trying not to cross a line.

That of my physical,

intellectual and psychological limits.

These are important things, connected with one's psyche.

Will I still be able to retain some logical thinking?

I wouldn't want to become a laughing stock,

or appear to be forcing things.

Someone might think,

"Oh, despite everything, she can't leave, she can't let go."

There are always certain boundaries in life,

certain limits to our abilities.

Yes.

- This is great, Mom. - Lovely!

Okay.

Got it.

You know I just don't like to impose myself.

I just don't like being somewhere, where I am not wanted.

And I always assume someone doesn't want me there.

And that makes me feel like an intruder.

That's why I always step back.

I miss those warm relationships,

that warmth and closeness.

Who do you want to get it from? Who can give you that, Mom?

- Your disco friends? Are you joking? - No, I mean...

Who can give it to you if not your closest family, me and Marek?

People need close relationships, Mom.

But you should always remember about it, not just from time to time.

You've never invited me for your name day or birthday.

Mom, I don't invite anyone.

What can I tell you?

I haven't celebrated my name day in 20 years.

- Well, exactly. - Besides, do we need a birthday

to visit each other? For you to come and see us?

You haven't visited us for 20 years.

Don't be surprised I don't take a lot of interest in you.

I show as much interest as you did.

I'm not surprised at all. I wasn't interested in sports.

And I'm not interested in your music. Not at all.

And that's fine. No hard feelings.

You lived right next to the stadium. Two stops away.

You could've come to a match, see your son represent Poland.

You have visited Marek maybe once in 20 years.

You travelled across the whole country with a suitcase weighing 30 kilos,

full of records, on the overnight train.

And you could go to gigs. But see your son? No, too far away.

We are sensitive too.

Do you think it's just you?

I just assumed I should be independent for as long as I can.

Not to be a burden for anyone for as long as possible.

That's what fucked-up people think. Fucked-up like me.

OUT ON THE STREETS TOMORROW THE BIG PARADE OF SENIORS

DJ VIKA INVITES YOU ALL

Old people also want to look pretty, damn it!

I'll be even more colourful!

Damn!

It was good when I was younger, but now...

The older I get, the more I resemble a parrot.

PARADE OF SENIORS

- This parade is actually your idea? - Yes, it is.

I thought that old age seemed to bring nothing but problems.

That old age is dull,

a stage in life when you don't develop, but just sit on a bench.

Just playing with rosary beads and dreaming of heaven.

Well, people can think that if they want.

But I want heaven on Earth.

THERE ARE NINE MILLION OF US

Dear all, we have shown our age!

We've shown there is no way our lives end upon retirement!

I declare the parade open, let's seize the future!

TO THE SILVER GENERATION OUR PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS

AND TO OUR FUTURE SELVES
