DW TV DOKU, Latvia,
10 YEARS AFTER EU ENTRY, 26 MIN

PROJECT/SHOTHING

26.min Documentary film in Latvia on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of entry into the EU. We travel to the Baltic States in perhaps the warmest summer the country has ever seen. We shoot in Riga and its surroundings at up to 40 degrees. The northern summer night sun provides us with breathtaking evenings and an enchanting scenery. The people love this warm climate, which is so rare here and is transformed. During our trip to Cesis, Kuldige, Daugavpils and even more so in Riga we get to know the new Latvia with its still very faithful tradition. Very special

We travel on land or gravel roads. There are no motorways in Latvia. The filming is well prepared by the author and shows no problems at all. We are so interested in the history of the country with its unique summer scenery.

In addition to other projects we have been to Latvia 3 times. Capital of Culture Opening 2014, 2015 Jurmula travel report and opera performance in new Riga Opera House.
