-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE: "Time of the Gypsies", (Dom za vesanje) by Emir Kusturica, 1989
DATE: Thursday, May 9, 2002
TIME: 7 PM
PLACE: MIT Room 4-231 (http://whereis.mit.edu/bin/map?locate=bldg_4)
RUNTIME: 136 min
LANGUAGE: Roma/Serbian with subtitles in English
GENRE: Comedy, Drama

DESCRIPTION:
In this luminous tale set in the former Yugoslavia, Perhan, an engaging
young Gypsy with telekinetic powers, is seduced by the quick-cash world of
petty crime which threatens to destroy him and those he loves.

The rare glimpse into the Romany Gypsy culture is enough to make this film
interesting, but the story is so compelling, the cinematography so
excellent and the characters so fascinating, that it takes on the
proportions of a major work of film.  Emir Kusturica won the award for
Best Director from the Cannes Film Festival for Time of the Gypsies
(1989).  We cannot recall any film delivering so much of that which we all
watch foreign films for.  Remember, we recommend that it be watched twice,
in order to absorb the ambience.
