The latest musical odyssey from Tony Gatlif (Latcho Drom, Exils, Swing) sees Zingarina, played by the magnetic Asia Argento, arrive deep in the heart of Romania, looking for the man she loves. She had met him in France, but one day he left without a word of explanation. With her friend, Marie, who jealously watches over her, Zingarina throws her body and soul into her romantic quest, getting caught up in this fascinating land. But when she finds her former lover in the midst of a pagan festival, he brutally rejects her. Mad with anguish, she flees from Marie who reminds her too much of her past, to fully merge into this new land, Transylvania, where she meets the world-worn Tchangalo (Head-On's Birol Unel), a man like her, without borders, without ties.
