If you think there's any Gypsy in your soul or you'd like to encourage some to enter, or you have any empathy with a wonderful group of individualistic nomadic souls who've been bringing colour to the world for centuries, then stop and spend a couple of hours indulging in the joy and passion of these marvellous people.
Celebrating a way of life over 1000 years old, Tony Gatlif's visually ravishing chronicle is an adventurous and unforgettable cinematic experience.
'Latcho Drom' or 'Safe Journey' transcends language and culture and tells of journeys past.
It's a musical journey, with song and dance performances of Romany's nomadic culture told by the musicians and dancers of India, Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, France and Spain.
This DVD is food for the soul.
Enjoy the feast...
