제1차 세계대전이 한창이던 때, ‘아르투르스’는 갑작스럽게 집으로 찾아온 독일군이 어머니를 살해하는 모습을 보게 된다. 이에 과거 군에서 15년간 복무했던 베테랑 아버지와 함께 자원입대하여, 스스로 처참한 전장의 한가운데로 뛰어들게 된 ‘아르투르스’. 17살이 채 되지 않은 어린 나이에도 가족과 조국, 그리고 자유를 위해 용기 있게 나선 그는 열악한 상황에서도 용맹하게 적과 맞서싸우며 수 차례 죽을 뻔한 고비를 넘긴다. 하지만 악명 높은 ‘죽음의 섬’에서 독일군과 대치하던 중, ‘아르투르스’는 뛰어난 사격 실력으로 56명의 독일군을 죽인 아버지의 행방이 묘연하다는 소식에 불안함을 느끼는데…

Two Rigans - Valentīna and Armands - make makeshift yard exhibitions by their homes out of objects they’ve found. They share the same hobby despite not knowing each other. As they’re decorating their little gardens of wonder for the upcoming Midsummer festival, it turns out that they too can find understanding and a sense of not being alone in their dreams.

A high-school folk dancing group heads to Latvian School Youth Song and Dance Festival, an event that takes place every five years and is part of the Latvian national identity – this is the culmination point of five years of work. Away from their homes and parents, they spend seven days and nights together. They are 18 and have just graduated, and this seems to be the last idle summer of their lives. Dreams mix with boredom, silly jokes with serious conversations. Taking care of one another creates affection and grows into a collective power. There are thousands like them at the festival. Every individual sensation turns into a common celebration that becomes more than just a tradition.
