Link to the trailer
Invited by a mysterious friend, a film team embarks on a journey through a hidden Yenish Europe that stretches from the dusty suburbs of Savoy to the forests of Carinthia.
Narrated by young and old voices, a kaleidoscopic panorama of Yenish life unfolds. An invisible bond connects these people: It is the deep wounds of the past, but also their love of freedom.
Who are the Yenish?
The Yenish are a group of people with their own language, culture and history. They are members or descendants of a population group with a traditionally itinerant, mostly semi-nomadic way of life.
They live mainly in Switzerland, Germany, France and Austria, but also in other parts of the world. Their total number is estimated at several hundred thousand, with around 35,000 in Switzerland alone.
The French spelling is Yéniche, the English Yenish; they are still sometimes called Gens de Voyage or Traveler. In Austria, the Yenish are also called Karrner, Dörcher or Laninger, in central Switzerland Fecker, in eastern Switzerland Kessler or Spengler. Yenish is the self-designation.
