About

A dual channel documentary on hand-processed 16mm and Double-8 exploring the subculture of filmmaking and the experimental works made in Latvia during the Soviet Occupation that pushed beyond the boundaries of censorship and official Socialist Realist program. Filmed and hand-processed at The Baltic Analog Lab and made with support from the Latvian State Archive of Audio-Visual Documents, the film investigates the importance of the archive, the physicality of memory, and places these films in conversation with our present.
