The Bells of Happiness

Director:
Marek Šulík, Jana Bučka

Mariena and Roman are cousins and live with their families in a poor Roma settlement in Eastern Slovakia. They admire two Czecho-Slovak pop stars - Karel Gott and Dara Rolins and decide to send them a DVD with a video-message and Roma-remix of their hit Bells of Happiness. The film traces the process of shooting the message on the background of their life in the settlement.
