Thanks for the answers, rostasi, - and for picking up that little spelling mistake of mine!

The film is absolutely fabulous, right-track.The music and the performances are captivating, with the music much wilder than I expected after the watered-down West-European gypsy music I´ve previously heard. Thanks for introducing me to a genuine musical and visual delight. I watched about a third of the movie last night - to the point where they take a boat and leave what could be the biblical era behind them; the gypsies sure have a long way to go if they´re ever going to catch up with misspoptart´s modern-day clips !
