- Synopsis
- Lubo makes a humble living as a street performer when, in
  1939, he is called to join the Swiss army to defend the border
  from a potential German invasion. Forced to abandon
  his family, he soon discovers that his wife tragically died
  while trying to stop the authorities from taking their three
  young children away. Targeted because they are Jenisch, a
  minority nomadic community, Lubo’s family falls victim to a
  national campaign for the ‘re-education’ of street children.
  But Lubo knows he will not find peace until he reunites with
  his children and gets justice for himself and his people - for
  which he is ready to go to extraordinary lengths. So begins
  a decades long journey for love and self-determination, an
  incredible adventure and an epic quest for freedom.
