La ballade du serpent (1991)

In Clejani, a village in Wallachia (south of Bucharest), two or three elderly Roma musicians are the last custodians of traditional village music. With them will disappear ballads and ancestral stories: tales of the haidouks, the outlaw-heroes of medieval Romania, initiation stories, and love songs.
