Gaidiet "Džonu Graftonu"
Andris Rozenbergs
Jānis Paukštello, Juris Pļaviņš
В основе сюжета - действительные события, происшедшие в сентябре 1905 года. Гапон вместе с эсерами на пароходе «Джон Графтон» организовал перевозку оружия в Россию, закупленного, как позже выяснилось, на японские деньги в Европе. При не выясненных до конца обстоятельствах, возможно здесь имела место провокация, пароход сел на мель, и революционерам удалось получить лишь часть оружия.

Zelta zirgs
Reinis Kalnaellis
Edgars Kaufelds, Zane Dombrovska
An ancient Latvian folk tale is the basis for this colorful animated feature in the tradition of Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. A vengeful sorceress casts a kingdom’s princess into a deep sleep at the top of an icy mountain, where she awaits release from the spell that will destroy the land. Of all the men vying for the honor, the shy outcast son of a family of thugs is the most unlikely. Director Kalnaellis brings a playful sense of humor to the characterizations and adds zippy contemporary elements including a chorus of wisecracking crows. (Gene Siskel Film Center)
