Sinossi:
Through a series of close-ups and plays of light and shade, this film tells of a journey through the men, women and children of the Rom population, which remains mysterious and little-known to this day. Having left intending to document the reality and present of Bosnia-Herzegovina, in which the wounds of war are still open, the director reveals faces and attitudes that belong to the history and culture of a people from far away, using the language of the cinema that aims to go beyond the distinction between documentary and fiction. "This is the story of a journey amongst the Rom communities of Bosnia-Herzegovina which started with the intention of documenting the present and ended by taking on the characteristics of a historic film there was also a more rational motivation: that of understanding what happened to them, the gypsies, a people famously without homeland or religion in an ex-Yugoslavia in which peoples and ethnic groups massacred each other in the name of a nation and their god." (Massimo D. D’Orzi)
