“How to Live Without Going Mad”

The heroine of “How to Live Without Going Mad” is Anka, who seemingly has it all: a loving husband, successful children, a good job, and a great apartment in the city centre.

Soon it turns out that her husband is cheating, she loses her job, the children are moody, and a bailiff is taking an interest in the apartment. Anka faces a simple choice: lie down and die of despair, or start living on her own terms, according to her whims and “at full throttle.” In the age of recycling, an attractive “second-hand” woman has a great future ahead of her.

For that to happen, Anka has to pull herself together, break free from her overprotective mother, make peace with her children, and find a new idea for herself. Ideas are not in short supply. The recipe for the “new Anka” is a handful of courage, plenty of self-confidence, a pinch of independence, and an ocean of humour.
