This film follows their everyday lives, their joys and woes, in the times of global economic recession. The small community becomes a mirror of the society. 102 min., 16:9, LAT, RUS, ENG subtitles
感覺就像拉脫維亞版的天水圍的日與夜。導演開門見山就說這是一部「第三方的小說式紀錄片(不幹涉)」。一條街中芸芸眾生演繹著自己的平淡生活,有辛苦拉扯大兩個孩子的單身媽媽、有跌跌撞撞生活在一起的難夫難妻、也有深藏功與名的神奇阿伯以及導演有意捕捉的貓貓狗狗。平淡致遠,頗有《遠足》的感官。
