Roumania, summer 1990. At a stones throw from Bucharest, a timeless village: Clejany City the gypsies call it. There a few toothless elders recite the ballads of the heyducks - outlaws and defenders of justice in Mediaeval Roumania. Musical and fatalistic by temperament, these irrepressible gypsies endure in the shadows of history.

Roumanie, été 1990. A deux jets de pierre de Bucarest, un village immuable, Clejani City comme l'appellent les Tziganes. Quelques vieux édentés y content encore les ballades des haidouk, ces bandits justiciers du moyen âge roumain. Musiciens et fatalistes, ces irréductibles Tziganes vivent àl'ombre de l'histoire.
