What does it mean to be different in a community that is itself marginalized from society at large? This documentary is about people who represent a minority within a minority: queer Roma. Some, looking for a place to be themselves, dream of finding work abroad. A legless father of five longs for a wheelchair. A grandma dedicates her life to her beloved grandson’s health. Once God-fearing Emil tries to save his son from the scourge of alcohol. These four stories, set in Roma communities in Slovakia, aim to break down prejudices among Slovakia’s Roma and non-Roma majority.
