The framing is perfect. A beautiful testimony. The other one is great too, the play with geometry is interesting, but less powerful. Very nice job.

This image is fascinating. Please could you add some words? It worth some context.

My choice is to use the word they use themselves. These families use the word Rrom (yes, 2 r at the beginning, sometimes 1 r in french). I've made some researches, this word seem not to exist in english and the "best" translation I've found is "Romani people". The original title of the report is...

Thank you ! I'd like to tell more about this documentary but my lack of language don't help to be precise. You seem very interested in this political point. I'm also surprised that you don't have the curiosity to inform yourself. I am not very comfortable with your emphasis on this subject...

Thank you all for your messages. English is not my native language, I hope I won't write something that I don't mean. Meeting these families has been a great life experience. It took a while before they agreed to be photographed. I fully understand this, because they feel devalued because of...
