The first film of Latvian cinema’s “new era”, that of the Riga School of Poetic Documentary Cinema. The story of a little girl in a white dress wandering the streets of Riga in search of the flowers she has seen in a shop window was originally conceived and shot as a short film, but its documentary character is so abundant and artistically valuable that this little film became a turning point in cinema history and the beginning of a new era.

A very little girl plays in big city traffic with no adult relative or guardian anywhere in sight. Was the intention to worry viewers about the welfare of the (possibly abandoned) child or to assure them that she is invulnerable, blessed? Either way I loved the movie.
