News headlines are often filled with the news that a foreign feature film or TV series is being filmed in Latvia, but the film “Good Neighbor”, which was released on the big screens last year, seems to have been able to avoid the limelight. This Saturday, June 10, the TV6 channel offers viewers the premiere of this film, because it is special not only because it was shot in Latvia, but also because of the wide array of Latvian actors who starred in it.
The plot centers on Luke Kleintank, who plays David in the film. He is a journalist who has just moved to Latvia to work for an English-language newspaper. Soon he meets his English neighbor Robert, played by Jonathan Rhys-Meyer, to whom David will ask for help, but he can’t even guess that behind the helpful smile hides a maniac who will ruin his life.
Horrifying events befall David and his eccentric neighbor Robert when the two accidentally knock over a girl.
David allows Robert to convince him to leave the scene and the dying girl to protect his career. While David is increasingly wracked with guilt, Robert shows no remorse for what happened and becomes domineering. When David meets Vanessa, the deceased sister, David gives in to reckless passion until he realizes that Robert will do everything to keep the secret of the two friends from being revealed to anyone.
The thriller “Good Neighbor” will be especially interesting for the audience not only with several Latvian actors in episodic roles, but also with the Riga landscape. Among the Latvian actors in the film, you will notice Kaspars Znotiņa, Inga Alsiņa, Ieva Florenci-Vīksni, Daina Grūbi, Regīna Razuma and others.
