What the critics say
«They worked together for seven years, almost like in a fairy tale, to let people have their voices heard whose lives didn’t turn out like in a fairy tale. A frightening must-see.»
Franz Hohler
«Andreas Müller and Simon Guy Fässler did not want to make a film about the Yenish, but with them. And they succeeded, among other things because they were keen to have real encounters without time pressure and thesis. (…) The two hours of the film fly by. Marcel Bächtiger interwove seven years of encounters, curiosity, caution and finally trust on both sides into a dense web of information, moments of highs and lows in the editing. This is a film of three friends in collaboration with many new friends – it shines from the screen.»
Michael Sennhauser, Sennhausers Filmblog
«A masterful road movie about a widely unknown people who impress with their strength and free approach to life.»
Ysabel Fantou, DOK.fest München
«Until now, little is known and passed down about the Yenish in Europe, because they treat their way of life as a well-guarded secret. Over several years, two filmmakers have built trusting relationships with Yenish people and were allowed to accompany them and catch rare glimpses of their lives. (…) The people tell intimate details of their own past and let the audience share in the concerns of the present. The result is an authentic, sensitive documentary about a part of our society.»
Yannick Bracher, outnow.ch
«Andreas Müller, Simon Guy Fässler and Marcel Bächtiger succeed in making an impressive documentary road movie that takes you on a journey through the stories of the various protagonists. The film offers a platform for Yenish people and contributes to the reappraisal of history.»
