Bet stunda nāk (But the hour is near)

But the Hour is Near

Documentary, 2004, 35mm, colour, stereo, 90'
On the streets of Riga, Eriks and Daniels preach both the Gospel and their version of a modern Christian lifestyle. Although friends, they hold opposing views of life – that of an extreme materialist and extreme idealist. Their story unfolds against the background of the emergence of charismatic new sects, determined to corner the religious market. A grotesque story from real life about ordinary people
who try to embrace fanatical faith in the face of temptations and demands of
everyday life.
