CGiii Comment
Tony Gatlif is a writer of stereotypes...and, a director without any sense of cohesion.
Transylvania is cold, grey and dull - with too much accordion music - that incessant chirpiness, amid the gloom, is worse than an ice-pick to the temple.

The(ir) Blurb...
Zingarina, who is two-month pregnant, travels from France to Transylvania with her friend Marie to seek out her lover Milan Agustin that was deported from France. They hire the guide and interpreter Luminitsa to help them to find the musician Milan. When she finds him, she is rejected and Milan tells that he was not deported, but left her. Zingarina has a breakdown and leaves Marie on the road, wandering with a street boy. Soon she meets the traveling trader Tchangalo and she joins him in a road travel without destiny.
