Roma – That Means Man is a fascinating documentary that meanders through the journey of Joshi Szalay, a young Viennese gypsy musician, as he retraces his ancestors' path from Europe to India. The film has this almost ethereal quality, as you feel the deep connection between places and cultures, shifting through Hungary, Romania, and all the way to the Indian subcontinent. The pacing can feel reflective, even meditative at times, allowing you to soak in the landscapes and the music. It’s distinct for its authentic representation of the Romani culture, and Szalay's performances add a raw, emotional layer that resonates throughout. The documentary feels like a personal odyssey, not just a travel film, but a quest for identity and belonging.
