Before the Leaves Fall...
The first Polish documentary about the life of Romani people. The film crew accompanied a tabor of the small Roma community during their journey from place to place. Their customs, relationships and cultural elements were captured on film. The individual scenes are not overcolored or enriched with any kind of romanticism, which was often presented in Polish literature concerning this community.
