Sinopse

In Ireland, around 25,000 people still live in temporary settlements in the style of itinerant workers far removed from the amenities of civilization. Moving from place to place without electricity or running water, their livelihood depends on horse breeding and hunting. Even as they keep their own language alive, this minority tries to find its way along the fringes of the settle world.In 2011 the photographer Birte Kaufmann was permitted to enter this insular world, even, on occasion, to travel and live with them. Her images part reportage, part documentary find the balance between observation and involvement, and between strangeness and the very real.
