Sometimes I Dream I'm Flying is the moving story of crossing the borders of one’s aspirations in order to fulfill one’s dreams. The central figure of the film is a young, outstanding and talented dancer who lives, since childhood, in the hall of residence of the Ballet School.

From the moment she becomes the best graduate of the year her international career in dancing opens up ahead of her. The modest and exceptionally hard-working Weronika aims continuously for perfection. Her free time from classes in the theatre is spent working unceasingly on her body.

Her private life, pain, loneliness and exhaustion remain somewhere in the background, brushed aside, until she suffers from a serious injury just two days before her performance at the Berlin Opera that would have been so vital to her career.
