The dancer who almost vanished from history — brought back in a storm of dreams and rebellion. Lucia Joyce, the brilliant but forgotten daughter of James Joyce, moves through a world that refuses to let her be free. Lucia Joyce & Flappers is not a simple retelling of her life — it’s a radical resurrection. In a hypnotic blend of memory, fantasy, and historical imagination, Małga Kubiak reclaims Lucia’s voice, her body, and her fierce, uncontainable spirit.

A girl travels around. And she is me. She sleeps around. Finally she finds two guys who are friends. Two cocks in her little feminist hands, so fucking luxurious. The film breaks conventions and norms and questions the patriarchal rules. The film deals with gender codes and their subversion. It tackles taboos about how to be more forward as a girl and what is generally accepted as ”allowed”. But above all it’s about honour among male friends.

Everyone has plans A, B, C and D. My plan is to turn all my plans into reality at the same time. How else do you get pregnant with an infertile guy?
