In this film, the inhabitants of Riga, each differently, introduce us to this 800-year old European city and make an avowal of love to it. You will learn that Riga is the world capital of Art Nouveau, that the famous Festival of Songs is on the List of UNESCO World Heritage, that the world-known violinist Gideon Cramer with his orchestra Kremerata Baltica comes from Riga, that during the Second World War near Riga, in the forests of Rumbula, more than 200,000 victims of the holocaust were killed, that today Riga is a cheerful and vital city visited by thousands of guests.
