Contents/Summary

Summary
Nadezhda, in the town of Sliven in Bulgaria is one of the biggest Roma ghettos in Europe. 20,000 people live packed into an unsanitary environment, walled off from the city by a three metre high wall. Nadezhda itself is a symbol of the apartheid that most Roma suffer from in Europe today. A glimmer of hope exists through education between the segregated schools in the ghetto and the rare few that welcome Roma children on the outside.
