Chaplin – Spirit Of The
Tramp

In her feature-length debut, Carmen Chaplin, great-granddaughter of the world-famous Charles Chaplin, tells the story of her own family origins and traditions. Through exclusive interviews and previously untouched archival documents from the Chaplin estate, the film brings the cultural Roma heritage of the “Great Dictator” to light for the first time. Intimate conversations, film clips, family recordings, and contributions from contemporary Roma artists bring us closer to what few people knew before, even though it is so obvious.
