"Spotkanie z Warszawą" ("Meeting with Warsaw") is an interpretation of a 1964 song by Irena Santor, reimagined by Polish alternative artist Monika Brodka. The song appears on Brodka’s album WAWA, blending modern alternative sensibilities with the song's original melodic structure.

Brodka’s accompanying black-and-white video, which she also directed, features her in the role of the Warsaw Mermaid—a symbolic figure in Polish culture that represents the city of Warsaw. In the video, Brodka recounts the city's difficult history, particularly its resilience and rebuilding after the devastation of World War II. The artistic project reflects both a tribute to the city’s past and a modern reinterpretation of its mythological and cultural significance.
