The story of this film began to take shape when the film’s director, Erik Jasaň, was growing up in a household with two Roma children, because his sister had become a professional parent. At the same time, Slovakia was shaken by a tragic event in which a professional parent killed a one-year-old Roma girl who had been placed in his care. In Slovakia, being a professional parent is a job — a paid profession. These parents take children into their own homes and receive a monthly salary. Most of these children are of Roma origin. In eastern Slovakia, where poverty has persisted for decades, this has become a path to financial security. But when people with hidden racist tendencies enter the system, the consequences can be catastrophic.
The film was supported by Slovak Audiovisual Fund (www.avf.sk), Litfond Slovakia (www.litfond.sk) and Košice Regional Film Office and Košický samosprávny kraj (www.vucke.sk, www.fk-ksk.sk www.kosiceregion.com).
