    On the morning of June 15, 1941, in Soviet-occupied Latvia, over 17,000 people are deported to Siberia. Melānija Vanaga, her husband Aleksandrs, editor of a newspaper of independent Latvia, and their eight-year-old son Andrejs are forced into a lorry and taken to the train station where the men are separated from their families. The deported are taken on a three-week long ride to the remote village of Tiukhtet. The first months in the alien environment they experienc famine and illness. The women and children have to make peace with their new life and find the will to live. This drives some to the point of collapse, yet Melanie is aware of “only one string sounding and that string is hope.” She takes detailed notes that later becomes the literary work of her 16 years spent in Siberia. Out of her notes, Melānija Vanaga prepared a book of documentary prose Veļupes krastā, which was published in 1991, soon after Latvia regained independence. Later, it served as the concluding volume in Vanaga’s seven-book series “The Gathering of Souls” about the personal history of her family and entire Latvia. 2016 | LATVIA | 120 min | Latvian, Russian & German w/English subtitles | B&W | Historical Drama CORINTH FILMS PRESENTS A MISTRUS MEDIA SHEADS PRODUCTIONS AND INLAND FILM COMPANY PRODUCTION WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY VIESTUR KAIRISH DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY GINTS BĒRZLŅŠ LGC PRODUCTION AND COSTUME DESIGNER IEVA JURJĀNE EDITOR JUSSI - RAUTANIEMI SOUND ALEKSANDRS VAICAHOVSKIS ROBERT SLEZĀK COMPOSERS ARTURS MASKATS ALEKSANDRS VAICAHOVSKIS KĀRLIS AUZĀNS PRODUCERS INESE BOKA-GRŪBE GINTS GRŪBE CO-PRODUCERS JULIETTA SICHEL KLAUS HEYDEMANN Viesturs Kairišs (born in Latvia, 30 January 1971) has directed films as well as theatre and opera.
