Amaro drom - Animation (2023)

Animated video clip for the song Amaro drom, which means "Our road" in romani language.

Note about the project:
When the incident with Kostas Fragoulis happened (a sixteen-year-old Roma boy who lost his life at the hands of a policeman), I was working in schools with Romani children — the same age as him. They asked me, “Will we be alive tomorrow, just because we are Roma?” This song was all I could come up with in response to such a question — one that touches you deeply as a teacher. They taught me their language. And when I finally managed to write the lyrics, a child smiled and said, “At last, it's nice to be Romani.”
