Gypsies Are Found Near Heaven is a 1975 Soviet romantic drama film by Emil Loteanu, loosely based on short stories "Makar Chudra" and "Old Izergil" by Maxim Gorky. Set in early 20th century Austria-Hungary, the film tells a love story between the Roma girl Rada and the horse thief Loiko Zobar.

Production

Traditional Romani songs such as "Malyarkitsa", "Dyves and Rat", "Loli Phabay (The Red Apple)", and "Nane Tsoha" were chosen by composer Eugene Doga and covered for the film by Roma theater performers from the Romen Theatre. Many characters in the film were played by actors from Romen, the Moldavian film studio, or Lithuanian Film Studios due to significant filming in the cities of Vilnius and Kaunas.
