For more than 30 years, Gerda Sinkeviča was the voice, face and heart of Latvian Television. He was adored, waited on the screens and also envied. A suggestive personality about whom Anta Rugāte undertook to write a book. As a thank you for everything that she had received from Gerda Sinkevičas as a TV colleague and a doctor.

The author of the book says: “I have interviewed about 60 people in order to create the basis for this book, on which to tell about my colleague, about the bright star who irradiated many people in the 50s, 60s, 70s, and also in the 80s and The viewers, people, processes of the 90s, which by its very nature, being the bearer of an extremely bright nationality, that is, the Libyan character, sometimes seemed to his slow, calm Latvians to be quite sharp, a Sherpa.”
The first idea for the book came on the day of Gerda Sinkiewicz’s funeral. More than ten years have passed since then, and the book “Our Gerda” saw the light of day almost simultaneously with the round anniversary of television and Gerda Sinkiewicz.
“She had a wonderful quality, which I have experienced more than once in person, that if someone started to gossip or gossip, if she was present, she said – stop, shale dill! – she did not let it happen, and this is a great human courage of personality. I was – in today’s lexicon I should probably say – fascinated by her, but in fact I loved her very much. I needed her very, very much in my life, and the more I thought about it, even while writing the book, the more I realized, that this is one of the brightest and brightest people in my life whom I have met by fate.”
“Our Gerda” is a documentary story that weaves through the entire life of a television personality. Visually, it begins with a 1956 hiring request and ends with a 1992 order dismissing Gerda Sinkiewicz and many of her colleagues.
Anta Rugāte says: “Here, in 1956, she wrote an application to the then television host – Lūgums. Please hire me as an announcer on television. Such a document says a lot about the time and about Gerda himself.”
About 100 pages remain outside the book. Anta Rugāte is convinced that “Mūsu Gerda” about the vital Libyan could also turn into a good movie story.
