Luli are the middle-asian gypsies, the lowest cast of the gypsies, living in the closed communities and leading the half-nomadic way of life. After the collapse of the USSR in Luli have come to Russia, settling near the big cities in the improvised villages, and living with begging and chep-paid construction works. Their status is still illegal, and they are being constantly expelled from their territories, being obliged to search for the new place. The gypsies on the photos are from near Novosibirsk and St. Petersburg.
