Pictures of the locations, panoramic views, videos and nature sounds are accompanied by excerpts from Imants Ziedonis and Rimants Ziedonis’s texts for their book “In Latvia, a Land of Forests”, which lies at the foundation of this project. The disc contains a two-level interactive map, which provides information on woodland locations of cultural and historical importance and shows the river network, Latvian lakes, cities and motorways. The map acts as a menu, in which juicy lingonberries mark the viewable locations. The DVD “Latvia: A Land of Forests” is a comprehensive project and comprises a large volume of visual information; it fulfils the original intention of presenting an emotionally and visually rich picture of Latvian forestlands.
