DESCRIPTION:There are one million Gypsies, or Rom, in America, who most people know 
 nothing about. Never before has a camera been allowed in to explore their 
 world. Shot over the course of five years, this feature documentary tells 
 the lyrical tale of one Romani family in the United States who have broken 
 the wall of secrecy surrounding their people. "AMERICAN GYPSY" follows the 
 story of Jimmy Marks, a flamboyant community leader who becomes 
 passionately obsessed with fighting a civil rights battle to defend his 
 family, his history and his honor. His journey carries us into the Romani 
 culture with scenes of Gypsies from around the world celebrating New Year 
 in Las Vegas; the arranged marriage of teenagers; and car salesmen in 
 Stetson hats driving Cadillacs.\n\nAMERICAN GYPSY is a glimpse of an 
 immigrant world that is either on the verge of extinction or at a critical 
 turning point for survival. It is a world that most of us have never had 
 the chance to visit because this is the first time it is being presented on 
 screen. \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2010/08/17/18656281.php
