(Also known as Elpojiet dziļi [“Breathe Deeply”])
As part of Latvian Film Festival in collaboration with the Embassy of Latvia
Middle-aged cultural worker Anita Sondore feels that the song lyrics of the young poet Cēzars Kalniņš, as sung by a youth ensemble, are inappropriate. She writes a letter of complaint to the newspaper, thus setting in motion the system of censorship. “Four White Shirts” is a sensitive and emotional portrayal of the spirit of 1960‘s youth. The cinematographic quintessence of longing freedom of the 1960’s, youthful maximalism and the voice of conscience allow the rebellious heroes of the film to stand beside other examples of the new wave in world cinema.
Director’s Rolands Kalniņš’ dissection of the arts censorship system turned out to be too on point, and therefore – unforgivable. The film was banned from being shown and “shelved”. But it still lived on in legend and through the songs that Imants Kalniņš had composed for the film. The first time it was screened to the public was in 1986, when the songs had already achieved cult status.
