Gypsy Heroine

Pablo Zaragoza looks at another group of people facing persecution by the Nazi regime. In Gypsy Heroine, he weaves World War II history throughout the story of a gypsy grandmother living in self-imposed isolation in England. Her granddaughter - born of her estranged daughter who had distanced herself from her gypsy heritage and married an American - travels to Lancaster to broaden her understanding of her ancestry.
In the process, around a campfire in the woods, she listens with rapt attention as her grandmother weaves heroic accounts of her attempts to rescue fellow gypsies from the Nazis. More surprises are in store for both.
