Three Feathers Film Club presents LATCHO DROM Friday 10th September 2010

 From the award winning director of SWING & VENGO comes one of the most beautiful films to grace the big screen. Celebrating a way of life over 1000 years old, Tony Gatlif's visually ravishing chronicle is an adventurous and unforgettable cinematic experience. A musical journey through the eyes and ears of Romany's nomadic culture, Latcho Drom , or "Safe Jouney", transcends language and culture, spanning the four seasons as told through the musicians and dancers of India, Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, France, and Spain. For these people, music, song and dance are food for the soul: the narratives in which they express their joy and suffering, chronicle their histories, and teach the cultural values of family, journey, love, separateness, and persecution. An enchanting film with passionate dance sequences and dramatic music it is sure to bring out the gypsy in everyone."
