Eurocrats redeemed
Brussels, a documentary on Latvians working in Brussels is being screened over the weekend at K Suns and Splendid Palace film houses over the weekend. Directed by Inese Kļava of Dokumentālists fame, it examines the life of people dedicated to the European idea at a pressing time for the union. It will be screened with English subtitles.
"Who loves Europe, really? Who will defend it? Aren't the 70 years of piece and cooperation just a nice dream which we'll awake from tomorrow?" the film's description reads.
