Earlier in April Latvian Culture Center of Colorado and Colorado Chapter of Latvian American Chamber of Commerce hosted the author Nora Iksena and producer Inara Kolmane for a private screening of the award-nominated Latvian movie ‘Soviet Milk’ in the prestigious Sie FilmCenter Denver. Ms. Iksena and Ms. Kolmane shared their perspectives and behind-the-scenes insights with us. Their presence truly made the event unforgettable!

With around 90 attendees, it was an evening filled with thought-provoking discussions and a deep dive into the themes and inspirations behind the film.

A big thank you to all who came out to support Latvian cinema and engage in meaningful dialogue. Stay tuned for more exciting events coming your way!
