Dzimuši Sibīrijā. Mārtiņš Vilsons
The years 1941 and 1949 became a fateful turning point for thousands of Latvians who were taken away without warning to an unknown destination. In a foreign land and harsh conditions, they tried to preserve their humanity, create a new life, and raise their children. These children grew up far from their homeland, in a foreign environment where they felt like outsiders. They learned a foreign language, lived among strangers, and asked questions that even adults were afraid to answer. One of these children is actor Mārtiņš Vilsons, who was born in exile in the Magadan region of Russia to the family of Zenta Vilsone and Rolands Čehovičs. In this documentary, director Dzintra Geka portrays his life story as a personal testimony to the fate of the exiled Latvians, their search for identity, and their return to a contradictory reality.
