Programme

Discussion will look back at Latvia’s experimental and amateur film movement of the 1980s and 1990s – a time when the People's Amateur Film Studio of the Academy of Sciences became a space of resistance and creative freedom, and the forum “Alternative” was born. Participants will reflect on the motivations, challenges, and legacy of this movement, which continues to live on in contemporary alternative cinema.

The discussion will be held on Thursday, April 16 at 17:30 at Kaņepes Culture Centre.

NB! The discussion will be held in Latvian.
