A sprint on premiere day. “Look! This is all yours. It’s all yours. Just run. Hold out your hand, Miru. Take it! Run faster!” a voice in her head whispers to start the day. The assistant director’s day is destined to unfold in a series of unfortunate and unlucky episodes: buying metal hair curlers, taking her three-year-old daughter to her grandmother’s, taking an actress who is having panic attacks to an interview. And then Kaspics, one of the main actors in the performance, disappears. Miru has nothing left — a day to live, a premiere to save.

Small incident makes a man realize that the world doesn't care about him. He then sets out on a way to personal revolution.

In 1873, brave men known as the New Latvians held the first-ever Latvian song festival under the watchful eye of oppressive censorship. This massive celebration, featuring 1,003 singers – both men and women – changed the course of the nation’s history. It stands as a unique example of non-violent resistance in the fight for freedom against imperialism, led by Latvia’s entrepreneurs, writers, publicists and ordinary villagers.
