GRAMNet/Bemis Film Series A Hole in the Head

Little is known about the tragedy of the Roma during World War II. They were murdered by the dozens, hundreds and thousands; in concentration camps, at the edges of mass graves and roadsides.

A few survived and keep their memory and scars as proof. In a world where fascism is once again prevalent, they are one of the last living witnesses to the Holocaust. Raymond Gurême, a 91-year-old French ‘Manouche’ with an extraordinary will to survive, who escaped from concentration camps a total of three times, is one of them.
