"The Long Way of Sinti and Roma" is awarded the German Human Rights Film Award 2022. We congratulate Adrian Oeser. Bibi Zilli Schmidt tells her story of persecution in the documentary. In addition, Rudko Kawczynski, chairman of the RCU, talks about the beginnings of civil law work of the Roma and Sinti in Germany. Extract from the jury's testimony: "The strength of this film is that it gives the word to different generations of Sinti and Roma in order to strongly depict the despicable practices of justice and majority society before and especially after 1945. (... ) The film - according to the opinion of the jury - receives an emotional power that touches through the open space it gives the protagonists. It's a truthful and authentic movie, not about Sinti and Roma, but about them. He addresses a still open wound in German society, about which there is far too little talk. "
