Mildas istaba (2026)
Directed by Kristīne Želve
Documentary, Drama, History
A documentary about Milda Palēviča (1889–1972), Latvia’s first female philosopher and a doctoral graduate of the Sorbonne, whose independent spirit and intellectual freedom endured despite the hardships of the Soviet era. Facing personal tragedies, a stifling daily reality, censorship, and the destruction of her academic career, Milda nevertheless preserved her inner world and commitment to thought. Her legacy survives in nine diaries written between 1911 and 1972—an extraordinary chronicle that offers a unique female perspective on the dramatic social, political, and cultural transformations of 20th-century Europe.
