Saltimbanques (2015)

Sonia Lettman is no ordinary (old) woman. Although eighty-two, she is not ripe for retirement. Only 1.40 m tall, Sonia is a regular ball of fire. Of the never-say-die kind, she started learning to play the accordion at the age of seventy, following the death of her husband. Now she plays her instrument and sings in the streets of Metz (where she lives), of Luxembourg City and of towns where big festivals are held. She has become an iconic figure in all these places and through this loving documentary, François Baldassare has decided to pay tribute to her.
