The Second World War divided the Latvian nation in two. Fleeing the Soviet occupation, many left their homeland via the Baltic Sea and sought refuge in the West. In New York’s Hell’s Kitchen they joined the core of the Latvian cultural community in exile. The film, covering a half-century, shows their lives today and what has become of those young writers and poets in their effort to combine global culture and their ethnic identity.
