Full Synopsis

Robin and David Stria are adoptive Romani brothers, who were raised by white foster parents. While trying to find his own identity, Robin works as a social worker who tries to raise the self-consciousness of the Roma community by producing an original Romani art. Robin and David, together with other Romani of various age and social backgrounds, create a theatre show called Miri Fajta. The show depicts a “typical” Romani family and after a successful premiere it´s often reprised. They made a film version of the story, which Robin decides to present as a first Romani sitcom and tries to sell it to Internet televisions. The documentary Miri Fajta is a mosaic of personal stories of Romani people, who found the strength to come out of their comfort zone and created an original Romani culture.
