A story about a family living in Britain. About the relationship between a sister and brother, about a mother and father, about the father's sister and about chance people - some of whom became family friends - about human weaknesses and the aspiration to live better. The story begins in the 1960s and continues until the protagonist Ella is around 30 years old.
Man-Tess has become even more brazen and now, along with the usual acetone-like smell which, it turns out, contains benzene and other carcinogenic substances, a constantly humming pump has for several weeks in a row been disturbing the nighttime peace of residents in the nearest buildings in Sarkandaugava.

Today we visited the publishing house Zvaigzne ABC in a reconstructed wooden building - the former studio of architect L.

A story about buying a camera - a saga that stretched over two months. It all began until one day the desire arose to evaluate the video functionality as well. In terms of video quality it was satisfactory, except for an intrusive noise in one (!) of the audio channels.
There is no simple answer to what this film is really about - whether a classic love triangle, social class differences, or the witchlike mysterious nature of woman that lures men to the edge of a cliff and the unwary fall... Eroticism - that is probably the right word for the character of this film's presentation. I recommend watching it!
