'Traveller'
"Traveller" explores the dynamics of a dwindling outlaw culture, in this case the Travellers, a Southern tribe of Irish-descended grifters so insular and tightknit they only marry among themselves. Travellers naturally distrust outsiders, all of whom are considered fair game for low-level, nickel-and-dollar scams.
Bokky is a contented Traveller, a first-rate charmer with nary a hint of guilt for his misdeeds. When Bokky returns for a Traveller group funeral he encounters Pat, bringing his scorned father back for burial (his crime: marrying an outsider). Pat wants to become a Traveller, insisting it’s his birthright, but only when Bokky stands up for him is he given a shot. -- Richard Harrington
