1944. A Gypsy encampment in wartime Holland. 9-year-old Settela is hauled from her caravan and sent to Auschwitz with her family. She dreams of leading her people to safety. A fictionalised version of the story of Settela the nine-year old girl in the famous photograph peering between the closing doors of the death-train on the way to the gas chambers. Unlike those of Anne Frank, Senetta's own words are unavailable to us, but the meticulous research of the Dutch journalist Aad Wagenaar revealed her to be not Jewish but Sinti.
