Mrs. Jaroslava shares her story of growing up with polio – a disease that stole part of her youth, but gave her friendships that lasted a lifetime. Polio is a viral infectious disease that can cause paralysis. The disease is almost eradicated today, but there are still people among us who suffer lifelong consequences after a polio epidemic. The movie shows just a few of those stories in a hopeful and slightly humorous way.
Klára Kubenková comes from the Czech Republic and studies Animation at FAMU in Prague. She primarily creates short films using 2D hand-drawn animation. In her work, she values the ability to convey important topics while adding humorous elements to lighten them.
