Latcho Drom (1993) Directed by Tony Gatlif
Sunday - February 3 - 6:30 p.m. Beautifully filmed with very little dialogue, Latcho Drom (Safe Journey) traces the migration of the Roma from India to Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, France and Spain through the music and dance by leading performers from those regions. The film takes place over one year’s time, and focuses on Roma essentials – food, water, musical instruments, song, dance, and the celebration of life. (35mm. 103 min. Not Rated.)
Time of the Gypsies (1988) Directed by Emir Kusturica
Tuesday - February 26 - 7:00 p.m. Winner of the Best Director Award at Cannes, Time of the Gypsies tells the story of a young Roma (Gypsy) who has telekinetic powers. He lives in a small village in Yugoslavia with his grandmother, physically handicapped sister, and gambling uncle. His life is turned upside down when a charismatic gangster lures him down a road of petty crime – leaving his family and fiancée for the vices of Milan. Upon his return home, things are far from how he left them. (35mm. 142 min. Rated R.)
Roma (Gypsies) are the largest minority in Europe and issues surrounding their place in society are frequently debated. Roma representation in film has taken many forms, from exotic sexuality and magic to the social problems of desperate poverty. This series links to a course on Roma (Gypsy) History and Culture - Representing the Roma through History, Music, and Film – and is sponsored by Central Eurasian Studies, Inner Asian and Uralic National Resource Center, Russian and East European Institute, Program in Western European Studies, Julius Rezler Fund for Hungarian Studies and IU Cinema. Special thanks to Lynn Hooker. Screenings are free, but ticketed.
Dallas Pashamende (2005) Directed by Róbert-Adrian Pejó
Tuesday - April 2 - 7:00 p.m. A young Roma man has escaped his home (a settlement built on a trash heap that is ironically called “Dallas”, after the TV series) to become a school teacher. He returns home to bury his father, and once home, he gets back in touch with his roots and rekindles a relationship with his old girlfriend. He begins to believe that he can improve the lives of the inhabitants, that is, until the violence and desperation of the place cause him to reconsider. (HD Cam. 93 min. Not Rated.)
