I Soeni, de Droom plot

Reinard Dewus is a Sinti: straightforward, headstrong, inflexible, but also sensitive and sometimes even sentimental. And above all he is a singer, with a voice that that other great folk singer could envy. While his singing career seems to be taking a more professional turn - a record executive is very interested in the teardrops sung in Romanes - director Carin Goeijers follows him closely. In the protected environment of the trailer park, on a trailer park tour with family and a horse and cart, and in his hunt for a better school for his teenage daughter. The film shows that, despite the fact that caravans no longer have wheels, the differences with 'citizens' are very deep. For example, my daughter laconically accepts that she may no longer go to school at all. She doesn't want to work in civil society anyway.
