ME AND MAMA MIA

Eleven-year old Rikke lives with her
father in an apartment in a tumble-
down part of inner Copenhagen.
She enjoys her friends and her school,
and is particularli interested in her
new school mistress.
She hasn't quite gotten over her moth-
er's recent death and even though
her father does his best Rikke often
daydreams about her mother com-
ing back.
At school she learns the myth of Pega-
sus, the horse with wings, who
brought the dead back from heaven,
and becomes totally enthralled with
this story as well as quite determined
to have her own horse.

So she enters a breakfast cereal com-
petition and wins first prize: a real
pony!
Naturally her father is far from plea-
sed with the thought of keeping a
pony in a big city but his neighbours
talk him into letting Rikke keep it -
and this turns the neighbourhood up-
side down. The local bum, whom eve-
rybody has been quite wary of, turns
out to be areal expert on horses, and
when Rikke's teacher pays a visit she
not only makes friends with Rikke but
also with Rikke's father...
This is a film about dreams and about
believing in them hard enough to
make them come true.
