"Those cries...the lament...I think it comes from picking cotton and garbanzos in the countryside. It seems to come from a past that only gypsies have inside themselves. I've seen more than 700 gypsies picking garbanzos in the fields. At night we'd sleep in a huge barn. Gypsies from the whole province would come together. They had to feed their children."
