Synopsis

In this luminous tale set in the area around Sarajevo and in Italy, Perhan, an engaging young Romani (gypsy) with telekinetic powers, is seduced by the quick-cash world of petty crime, which threatens to destroy him and those he loves.

Our take

Only completely distinct visionary artistry could have realized this difficult tale of the struggles of nomad life with several poetic-realist flourishes. Emir Kusturica’s inspired film is bound to divide and yet remains utterly essential for its political, aesthetic, and narrative ingenuity.
