"Kurzeme is in the voices—the voices of windmills and airplanes, fishing boats and ocean liners, land and sea, the elderly and children, victims and heroes… In our voices." A text by Jānis Peters, read by actor Juris Strenga, accompanies the story of Kurzeme—its history and present day. Turning the pages of a harsh history filled with wars and revolutionaries, the “price lists” of medieval executioners, and the tragedy of Zlēki during World War II, the film returns to the summer of 1969, bringing together various characters and events.
