Fingerprints

Overview

The film is particularly moving due to the unusually present archive material: it starts relatively harmlessly: people building railroad tracks, Roma next to their caravans in the field, and then the Roma and Sinti cataloging carried out by the Eisenstadt police in 1931. A found footage video with historical film recordings from Burgenland in the interwar period, accompanied by electronically edited Burgenland-Croatian tambourizzas.
