Is it possible to have a true emotional connection with a car? That’s the question we attempt to answer in the short (6 minute) documentary film “Annie The Beetle”. Kathleen Brooks is a 72-year-old, three-time cancer survivor and self-described “free spirit” from Solana Beach, California. She bought her car “Annie” in 1967 and has never owned another vehicle. The two have been together through over 300,000 miles and the many ups and downs of Kathleen’s life. The relationship they forged over 52 years is unique and beautiful… but simply re-telling a story about Kathleen and Annie wasn’t enough. This film documents the incredible way Volkswagen showed its appreciation for Kathleen’s dedication over the years. It’s a heartwarming story about a woman, a car, and the life they have shared.
