An exhilirating combination of documentary and concert film, this joyous celebration of the musical world of the Roma follows the 2001 U.S. "Gypsy Caravan" tour, which showcased five bands from four countries. Filmed by the ‘godfather’ of documentary, Albert Maysles, Gypsy Caravan captures both the electrifying on-stage performances from the musicians as well as the looking behind-the-scenes when the diverse groups, divided by language and culture, start to jam and bond.

Needless to say Gypsy Caravan has a wonderful soundtrack; more than this however it provides a rare glimpse into the world of the Roma.
