This documentary movie is a portrait of a Roma family in a small village in Romania. The parents of the family asked us (the co-directors) to become the godparents of the youngest daughter 10 years ago. This portrait was made during the four seasons- during the daily struggle of carrying for the existential needs. It is the final student project of Christiane Schmidt at university of television and film, munich.
