Rock’N’Roll Eddie

Praised as ground-breaking Polish family adventure, Rock’n’roll Eddie follows two kids who accidentally bring a rock-and-roll fugitive from another world, pursued by ruthless bounty hunters. A journey full of surprises, chases and escapes, filled with humour and fantastic music. 

The greatest dream of 12-year-old Frank is to become an inventor. His latest plan is to make a flying device. The well-organized Frank meets a snappy, spontaneous and joyful girl of his age, Isabel. He let her in on his newest scientific plan, but the experiment gets out of control. They punch a hole into another dimension – a mysterious and dangerous land of Oblivio. As a result, they bring in an amazing stranger – Eddie, a wacky Elvis Presley lookalike. Quickly, it turns out that Eddie didn’t come to our world alone and he is chased by merciless bounty hunters. In order to save his life, the two kids have to find a way to send him back to where he came from. It’s time to jump into the greatest adventure of a kid’s life, or… as Eddie would say: “It’s time to rock’n’roll”!
