STVR - Slovakia

Mimi is about to turn ten. She lives near Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, in a small village. She is very curious, kind and incredibly talented for her age.

Playing the dulcimer is very demanding. It is a traditional folk instrument that has been known since the 17th century, its original sound is characteristic of gypsy music and folk, rustic music. Learning to play the dulcimer requires a lot of patience, time and real enthusiasm. This is not a guitar or piano. Playing the dulcimer means mastering 133 strings, pedals and mallets.

Mimi wants to start a folklore group and play at the biggest folklore festival in Slovakia - Východná.

Performing at such a festival is not easy. Mimi has to pass the selection process. He has to overcome himself, try hard, overcome stage fright and keep his band in a good mood.Will she succeed?
