Masas (2022)
What are the 'forgotten children'? That is the question.

Olte focuses on thirteen years old Anastasia (Emma Skirmante), who lives in longings and illusions about her biological mother. Her mother also grew up in an orphanage and spent a large part of her life in prison, which also shows her as a victim of the Latvian social system. Lonely, unsupported and uneducated, this mother - Alla (Iveta Pole) - goes through life with nervous laughter echoing over the fates of her three abandoned daughters. Thoughts pervaded the film - You cannot give to another what you have not received yourself. You cannot create a world about whose existence you have no idea.
