In the last 7 years I lived in 5 countries, in 7 cities and in 16 homes. Now I only have three days to pack my things. It‘s my sixteenth home, sixteenth room from which I‘ll move myself out. I am packing things and through my window I see another 215 windows. Through these windows I see immigrants, couples, misfortunes. Some read, some play, some sleep, some learn to walk on the balance beam, they come in, they go out. I am filming so I wouldn‘t forget about them.

During the night, people in the largest Romany settlement in Lithuania don‘t sleep. Two sisters, Zita and Liuba, have lived in this settlement their entire lives. “The daytime is not for me, for me it‘s night. At night I like my home and my life“ says one of the sisters.
