EVERYDAY LIFE OF THE ROMANI: LIFE OF A ROMANI FAMILY
Željko and other 9 members of his family live in the woods. Without water, electricity, bathroom ... Every day, he has to bring his 8 children to school and back. Winter is a hard time for them.
Film offers us an insight into 24 hours of Roma everyday.
Is a problematic Roma cause or the result of discrimination? This is a main issue that a documentary film EVERYDAY LIFE OF THE ROMANI offers us to think about.
Rejections of Roma in society leads to a lack of self-confidence and negative self-image, which is an excellent predisposition for the decline in the cultural level and the development of defense mechanisms such as distrust, conflict and aggression.
