HELP FUND GYPSY CARAVAN


From Jasmine Dellal & Little Dust Productions

"We’re off to Hungary this summer to show a film and make a film. And we’re asking for your help...

Our aim is to use film to challenge "Gypsy" stereotypes – stereotypes so dangerous that there are frequent attacks on Roma (“Gypsies”) purely due to their race. In the past two years, 8 Roma have been lynched in Hungary. Whole villages have been mobbed. Police don’t even pursue crimes against Gypsies. Employers openly reject Gypsy job applicants. Kids are kept out of school (this is banned by European courts but everyone knows it continues). Adults are barred from shops & nightclubs. Racism is rampant and accepted.

People say openly that Gypsies are the "Niggers of Europe" (I quote!). In the 21st century, this is totally unacceptable.

Slowly, some charities are trying to change things (and one of the world’s richest men, George Soros, supports many such pro-Roma efforts). But it won’t be easy, so I think we’ve all got to pitch in. And one of the best modern weapons against prejudice is film.

Phew – something we can do!"

Who I'd like to meet:



From NYMAG:

"There are 8 million stories in the Big Apple, and many of the good ones have involved depraved nights at this Bulgarian bar. [...] Those hunting for the old depravity need only ask the bar minx for a ladling of alcoholic apple cider or a bottle of Astika, a Bulgarian pilsner, and then tramp downstairs, where the familiar sign “Get Naked, Get A Free Shot” encourages the sweaty swarm of fashion brats and ex-pats to get every bit as raw as their brick- and stone-walled surroundings."

From YELP:

"After a night here you may wake up thinking, wow, how the heck did I end up at that place and did I really see a man dancing with a chair on his chin? What was the name of that place and will I be able to find it again ? "

"Oh my lord. I thought the Soviet Union had dissembled in the 90s but clearly it lives on in this Bulgarian Bar! I can't even say how refreshing it is to actually hear people say 'opa!" after their shot, and dance around in a circle."
