This was the first Kusturica film I've seen and I was greatly impressed with it. It shows the transformation of a young, honest Gypsy boy from Yugoslavia into a thief and robber. He goes into crime because he needs money for his girlfriend's dowry. It is the first film completely in the Gypsy language, Romany. I think for all the people who are interested in Gypsy culture should see this film. It portrays them in a very positive and factual manner. The acting by Dujmovic who was also in Kusturica's Underground and when father was away on business was great.
