Time of the Gypsies

You're a young Romani man, gifted with uncanny abilities. An offer arrives to leave for Italy, offering a new life and care for your ailing sister, but the deal comes at a steep price. Kusturica's vision blends folkloric magic with the grim realities of survival. The film lingers in the space between dreams and deception.
