In this luminous tale set in the former Yugoslavia, Perhan, an engaging young Romany with telekinetic powers, is seduced by the quick-cash world of petty crime that threatens to destroy him and those he loves. His sense of morality is replaced by lessons in begging and thievery after he is forced to join a gypsy gang.
