Synopsis:
Roma: A "mysterious people" whose identity is lost in the depths of time and in the distant places of wandering. From India and Egypt to Sweden and England and from the time of Alexander the Great to the present day, street lords appear on the map of world anthropogeography. Since then, they have lived on the fringes of the fringe, on the verge of legitimacy and on the verge of social acceptance.
