Description of the content

This film is unique even in an international context, since the romani Kris hasn't yet been filmed. Not only was the situation of the director exceptional because she could record it on film with the staff. This film is an unparalleled example of the fact, that this is a living tradition, and it is also exceptional in the sense that the Romas rarely develop the Kris to this extreme, ultimate stage.
