The 4-minute spot, produced for International Women’s Day 2009,
features flashes of the personal history of five Roma human rights
activists from all over Europe along with footage from Roma
settlements across the continent. In these times of crisis, as social
cohesion is greatly endangered by the multiplication of acts of
extreme violence against Roma in Hungary and elsewhere, the campaign
exhorts the public to respect Roma in all their complexity.

A 30-second Hungarian version of the spot is being screened from 6th
to 10th March 2009 on hundreds of public screens across Hungary.
