Pavia Fleischer’s documentary chronicles a road trip by the filmmaker and Eugene Hutz, frontman and lead singer of New York's gypsy punk bandGogol Bordello, through Eugene’s home country, Ukraine. Hutz's purpose is to rediscover his Romani gypsy roots and learn the secrets of gypsy music. Fleischer’s aim is to rediscover a forgotten romance. The result is a story of two people traveling together on two very different yet convergent courses.

This is an intimate portrait of a filmmaker with a passion for her subject, and a punk musician with a longing to revisit his past. Theirs is a journey which tests their relationship and challenges their perceptions of the music they both love.

Dr. Adriana Helbig from the Department of Music at the University of Pittsburgh will introduce the film. Screening will be followed by a Gypsy Cuisine Reception sponsored by Gypsy Cafe.
