Latvian Film Festival: Brand New Features, Classics, Centenary Films, and More

The festival program includes brand new Latvian feature films, cinema classics, Latvian centenary films, documentary cinema and animation for children. The films will be available to the audience from November 11 to November 19, but the three newest feature films – at the height of the holiday, on November 18 and November 19.

The NKC portal “filmas.lv”, which ensures wider accessibility of Latvian cinema to the public, offers viewers regular online festivals – a selection of films that can be viewed for free all over the world and on various mobile screens during a given period of time.

This year, the festival is organized by the diaspora support program of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the offer of the Patriot Week includes seven feature films, one full-length animated film, two documentaries and five animated short films for the youngest viewers.

The newest films of the Patriot Week festival are currently still in circulation at world festivals and other distribution events, so they are included in the free offer of the “filmas.lv” portal only for two days during the holiday weekend – November 18 and November 19.

Three feature films will be shown during these days, and one of them is the 2022 film “January” by director Viesturs Kairis, which tells about the feelings of young people at an important moment in history for Latvia and received the National Cinema Award “Lielais Kristaps” as the best feature film of the year. Director Linda Olte’s 2022 drama “Māsas”, which is recognized and awarded at international film festivals, will also be available during the weekend – a story about the desperate desire of two sisters who grew up in an orphanage to find their mother’s love. The third film of the holiday weekend is director Dzintars Dreiberg’s 2021 “Blizzard of Souls” – a war drama that has already garnered record-breaking audience interest in Latvian cinemas and several National Cinema Awards.
