Synopsis
When the Road Bends: Tales of a Gypsy Caravan follows the breath-taking performances and behind-the-scenes action of a unique concert tour. We discover the real lives of these musicians; traveling to their homes, meeting their families and seeing what music brings to their lives. At home in Macedonia, Romania, India and Spain, the tales of these characters unfold and are woven between their performances, reflecting the imagery and emotion of the music. We get to know them, allowing us to understand and expand on the riches of their music, history and culture.
During the highs and lows of a whimsical fun-filled U.S. road trip (ranging from screaming fans flocking hundreds of miles for an autograph to cold coffee at Motel-6 machines and plenty of practical jokes), the artists befriend each other and they share the majesty and glory of music whilst overcoming the prejudice that is part of their shared ancestry.
