Logline: A deaf girl from an illegal Roma settling escapes the brutal reality of everyday life into the world of rhythm, dance and imagination.The Queen of Spades is a musical documentary film set in a marginalized world of a Roma settling in Poland. This harsh reality transforms into music, Bollywood dances and fantasy as we enter into the world of Denisa, a 10 years old deaf girl. An unusual and original way of looking at the daily life of a community constantly menaced of eviction. Denisa is an illegal citizen of a gypsy settling in Poland, a woman in a patriarchal gypsy community, a child that has nothing to say and most of all – she doesn’t speak as no one has ever diagnosed her with severe hearing disabilities. Even the children from the settling call her „the stupid one“, but Denisa is far from being stupid. She simply has a world of her own. A world full of rhythm and dance. Fascinated by Bollywood films she watches on a small TV (when her parents can afford fuel, as there is no electricity at the settling) Denisa creates her own dance sequences. One day, going through the garbage in search of used clothes, wood and scrap, Denisa finds a plastic crown and starts to dance. While dancing she can be anyone she wants - even a queen.
