Summary: | Stéphane, a young French man from Paris, travels to Romania. He is looking for Nora Luca, a singer whom his father listened to before his death. Wandering along a frozen road, he meets an old Roma called Izidor and asks him about Nora Luca. Izidor takes him to his village and Stéphane believes that Izidor will take him to Nora Luca. He lives in the tinker village for several months. The other inhabitants dislike him at first and he himself sees them as thieves, but when the newcomer and the community get to know each other, they start to get along well. The young and beautiful Sabina translates for him, and Stéphane finds out that nobody has ever understood a thing that he has said. |
