A People Uncounted
October 17, 9:00 PM, Regina Public Library
This moving film is a portrait of the Roma - a people who have been both romanticized and vilified in popular culture. Commonly referred to as Gypsies, they have endured centuries of intolerance and persecution in Europe, most notably the Holocaust genocide where an estimated 500,000 were murdered. A People Uncounted documents their culturally rich, yet often difficult lives, anddemonstrates how their present state has been deeply shaped by the tragedies of the past.``Profoundly moving...a powerful documentary on the plight of the Roma people through history...an expansive essay on prejudice and the resilience of the human spirit.``
