Product Description:
Celebrating the rich musical heritage of the Romani people, the high-spirited concert film GYPSY CARAVAN follows a handful of wandering musicians on their eclectic tour across the United States. Five bands with diverse nationalities and styles (spanning flamenco, jazz, and folk) joined together for this unique traveling show, intent on introducing the Roma culture and passion for performance to enthusiastic North American audiences. Shot in part by documentary legend Albert Maysles, the feature includes an in-depth interview with actor Johnny Depp about his love of the Gypsy music sound.
Description by New Video Group:
An audience favorite at film festivals worldwide, GYPSY CARAVAN is a dazzling display of the musical world of the Roma, juxtaposed to the real world they live in. Five bands from four countries unite for the World Music Institute's Gypsy Caravan 6-week concert tour across North America with the musicians astounding every audience they meet. Their musical styles range from flamenco to brass band, from Romanian violin and Indian folk to Raga and jazz. And with fire in their bellies and soul in their voices, they present an explosion of song and dance that celebrates the best of Gypsy music and the diversity of the Romani people.
Shot by cinema verité icon Albert Maysles, the film takes place during the USA tour as well as on location in Macedonia, Romania, India, and Spain. The tales of these characters unfold and are woven between their performances, reflecting the imagery and emotion of the music.
GYPSY CARAVAN is a Romani celebration that will leave your toes tapping, your heart pumping, and your soul uplifted.
