An audience favorite at film festivals worldwide, this dynamic documentary
is a gorgeous surround-sound celebration of misery and oppression
turned into music. The film follows five internationally-acclaimed
Gypsy bands on their North American tour. Their musical styles range
from flamenco to brass band, Romanian violin to Indian folk. With
humor and soul in their voices, they celebrate the best in Gypsy
culture and the diversity of the Romani people in an explosion of
song and dance.
