The Idylls of Kirtimai
Artūras Jevdokimovas / Lithuania / 1991 / Czech Premiere / 13 min.
synopsis
An observational anthropological study follows the life of the residents of the largest Roma settlement in Lithuania. Instead of the usual tendency to draw attention to their poverty, lack of education, and discrimination, the film focuses primarily on an ideologically unencumbered representation of everyday patterns of life.
