Kokaru dziesmusvētki 2008

Directed by Gints Grūbe

The story of a generation's life and Latvian history, based on the autobiographical accounts of Latvian choral music legends, conductors Imants Kokars and Gidon Kokars, their view of the events of the past century, their personal biographies, and historical events in Latvia and around the world. The Kokars are both symbols of an era and people who, as public figures, have created an image of themselves that they themselves have willingly shaped or allowed others to shape. The film is a story about Imants and Gido Kokari at the age of 87, when their memories form a story about themselves and create a mirror image of the events and emotions of an entire era.
