La Mosson, suburb of Montpellier, spring 2024. A Traveller wedding is about to take place.
In the bedroom of a small apartment, Luisa and her female cousins gather to talk about their dreams, their traditions and their desire for emancipation. For Luisa, flamenco has become a ritual and a place of freedom.
