Description of the content A mixed, Gipsy and Hungarian family is searching for their ancestors through four generations. Documents and records take them to the great grandparents; it turns out that the great grandfather was in the service of Franz Joseph. The alcoholic father disowns his daughter because she married a Gipsy man. The woman disowns her son because he moved to the.street where Gypsies live. The scheme is the same: the parents feel shameful that their children are debased to the Gypsies, because no matter what they do they are not loved but treated like Gypsies.
