Gypsy Gadji

The Roma* in Poland are the largest and the most marginalised ethnic minority. Roksana identifies as both Roma (Gypsy) and Polish (Gadji). Employed as a teaching assistant, she works to keep Roma children in school as more than half leave education before the age of sixteen. She could be the perfect bridge, but each culture wants her to reject the other. Roksana, however, desires to belong.
