Pinho received a tip from Paulina Stevens, a woman who grew up in a closed Romani community in California. Raised to embrace traditional roles as a wife, mother, and fortuneteller, Paulina's decision to break away opened a narrative that traverses continents and centuries, revealing complex and even metaphysical realities.
