New Times at Crossroad Street

Ten years have passed since we made the film Crossroad Street about a small street in the suburbs of the city of Riga Now weve come back Perhaps it was a sense of duty perhaps nostalgia that brought us back who knows Perhaps it was both Daiga Aldis Osis theyre all our people The first film had an impact on both the filmmakers and the residents of Crossroad Street We found friends whom we want to meet again and again Society has become more prosperous several value systems coexist sidebyside People often live in these systems as though they were in different worlds that never meet We felt that the world inhabited by our people is sinking into oblivion and so we wanted to show that it still has its own turbulence that Crossroad Street resembles Latvias palm the place where a fortune teller can see the lines of its destiny
