Camelamos naquerar Plot and Cast
Born from a collaboration between Romani poet and professor José Heredia Maya and Romani flamenco dancer and choreographer Mario Maya, who also performs alongside other artists, this adaptation of the play Camelamos naquerar takes its title from Caló for 'we want to speak.' That message drives the effort to reclaim a place in Spanish history for the Roma people and to denounce institutional injustice, beginning with the Pragmatic decrees of the Catholic Monarchs in the late fifteenth century and continuing through twentieth-century Francoist laws.
