New DVD FISHERMAN’S SON!
NewsAt last and finally! We are pleased to offer on DVD The First National Blockbuster - THE FISHERMAN’S SON!
When in the 1930’s Latvia the young author Vilis Lācis became wildly popular with his novel The Fisherman’s Son, film director Vilis Lapenieks picked the book as the basis for the country’s first government-sponsored feature film – and it became the cornerstone of national cinema. Even after 70 years the film has an important place in Latvia’s cultural history. Deemed a “relic of bourgeois Latvia”, it was hidden during the soviet years; when independence was regained, the film was once again up on the screen and became a symbol of the youth of the free Latvia.
