Once Upon a Time Gypsies

In their junkyard, the gypsies live a comfortable life. They make music, sing or they just hang around and do nothing. When they are hungry, they steal or sell flowers. Nevertheless, like any society, they have their problems... and like any society, they have their dreamer.

Ramko the gypsy boy is not just a dreamer. He is an artist, a technician and an inventor. His dream is to go to America and become an astronaut. For this, he works on a broken tractor with which he wants to start the journey. When he realizes that only the right use of time can help him fix the tractor, there is no turning back. Neither for him, nor for the gypsy girl Bluma, whom he takes with him on the way.
