Daugava Delta

Running time: 20’

Production: LV/GER 2014

Far from the centre of the city Riga and separated by the historical Spilve Airport with adjoining large allotment site, the suburbs Bolderāja and Daugavgrīva are a kind of social island or biotope – a blend of apartment and detached family houses, backyards, shipyards, docks, yacht club, sea academy, historic fortress and barracks. Here, where Daugava River flows into the Bay of Riga, anglers crowd the sunny mole during the spawning season of sprat, whereas veterans in the local pub are in memorial of their fallen fathers on Victory Day (День Победы).
