Amidst Europe’s risk of neo-fascism, a group of actors, including Romnija, Roma, Romani travelers, and Israeli-German-Turkish-Berlin Gadjé, is advocating for a Roma army for self-defense against discrimination and racism. Initiated by sisters Simonida and Sandra Selimović, this supranational, diverse, feminist, and queer initiative is part of an artistic action at the Gorki with director Yael Ronen. They explore personal experiences and historical events to create a play, collaborating with visual artists Delaine and Damian Le Bas to envision a Safe European Home in Gypsyland Europe.

The year is 2040. Large parts of the Netherlands have been flooded and millions of people have sought refuge in Limburg; the last refuge where everyone hopes for a new life as they knew it. But nothing is left to chance in this sanctuary. Doctor Frank (Bruno Vanden Broecke), the gene doctor, helps you find the ideal child with the best genes and brains. And Alecto (Angela Schijf), an all-controlling, self-learning artificial intelligence, is always helpful in all decisions. From lunch to love, it's best to leave your affairs to Alecto. This new world offers the perfect relationship with a partner exactly as we dream of him or her, and even the sex is better in virtual rooms. But how do you find your own way when everything is based on data, coincidence no longer exists and the role of humans seems to be becoming less and less important?
