THE STRANGERS WITHIN: A PORTRAIT OF THE ROMA
From Adam and Tree CarrAbout the film:
In the summer of 2009,
a group of filmmakers travelled through Romania performing clown theatre to various Gypsy communities: the country's largest minority and historically Europe's most excluded ethnic group. Using this medium as a means to reach the reality behind a culture which has evoked such strong stereotypes throughout Europe,
the film discovered many different personal stories and experiences,
and above all a strong sense of a fiercely proud culture whose highest virtue is dignity.
