The Latvian institute's series of short films looking at various people and places in Latvia is continuing online, with the latest episode involving presenter Kristīne Komarovska taking a trip to a unique private museum in out-of-the-way Vecpiebalga dubbed the "Cinema Farm".

As previously reported by LSM, the temple to celluloid was formerly a pig farm.

The short five-minute film comes with English-language subtitles.

You can see more films in the series at the Latvian Institute's YouTube channel, covering a wide range of subjects and locations.
