| Being a peasant is not a profession, it is a mode of life, the only acceptable one for most Latvians. How does a Latvian peasant feel having regained his land after 50 years of the Soviet rule? What is his inheritance from times of the collective farms and what are grandfathers did? The film was made in 1993 in Latvia Vidzeme region at a time both difficult and decisive for the peasants. The cycle of a peasant’s life from spring tillautumn gives extensive food for thought and leads to many conclusions. |
