Gypsy Davy

When a blond Californian (with Alabama roots) becomes a Spanish Flamenco guitarist in Andalucian boots, what happens along the way and behind the scenes? GYPSY DAVY (Official Selection, SUNDANCE 2012) tells the story of David Jones, stage name: "David Serva," from the perspective of his five women and five children—one of whom is the director. After all, who knows the man who came and saw and conquered, “strumming their pain with his fingers,” better than they? Part duel and part duet—between a camera pointing daughter and a guitar wielding father—GYPSY DAVY is a personal and political portrait of a man, a family, a generation. Shot over a ten years in five countries across three continents, and featuring some of the finest “old-school” Gypsy Flamenco artists, GYPSY DAVY is much more than another hunt-down-the-absent-father movie, it’s a home-made epic.
