Myth Busting Gypsy Culture
Paulina, raised in the traditional Romani Culture (where women are expected to be mothers/servants/breadwinners) struggles to emerge from an ancient and restrictive culture to ensure her daughters get an adequate education and are never subject to the practice of becoming virtual servants in their in-laws home. This is a great tutorial on a little known culture. But the arc of the heroine’s growth, after she breaks away from her tribe is what really makes the tale. Paulina becomes a business owner, gets an education and becomes an advocate. A fascinating examination of how women both suffer and flourish when they refuse to perpetuate an insufferable environment.
