Gypsies on the occasion of the yearly pilgrimage and festival of the Gypsies in honor of Saint Sara, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953.

For the annual pilgrimage honoring Saint Sara, Gypsy families gather in a bustling encampment on the shores of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953. Vintage trucks, piled high with belongings, serve as homes and transportation. In the sandy, scrub-covered landscape, daily life unfolds: a couple tends to cooking pots on the ground, a young girl runs with a curious expression, and others congregate near simple tarp tents by the water under a bright, open sky.
