BEFORE THE FOLIAGE FALLS

POLISH TITLE: ZANIM OPADNĄ LIŚCIE

A result of long-term observation, this documentary depicting Polish Roma people (or Gypsies, as they were referred to at that time) is also an ethnographic record. Exotic life in the caravan and specific genre scenes are combined with the picture of everyday life.
