*Rainer Komers, 2015
*/North American Premiere
/*Short Competition*

Far from the centre of the city Riga and separated by the historical 
Spilve Airport with adjoining large allotment site, the suburbs 
Bolderāja and Daugavgriva are a kind of social island or biotope - a 
blend of apartment and detached family houses, backyards, shipyards, 
docks, yacht club, sea academy, historic fortress and barracks. Here, 
where the Daugava River flows into the Bay of Riga, anglers crowd the 
sunny mole during the spawning season of sprat, while veterans in the 
local pub are in memorial of their fallen fathers on Victory Day.

Hunting in Wartime 
<http://www.bigskyfilmfest.org/festival/films-2016-peak/hunting_in_wartime> 
- /66 minutes, *Big Sky Doc Winner!*///

*Samantha Farinella, 2015
*/Montana Premiere
/*Big Sky Award Competition*

Hunting in Wartime profiles Tlingit veterans from Hoonah, Alaska who saw 
combat during the Vietnam War. The veterans talk about surviving trauma, 
relating to Vietnamese civilians, readjusting to civilian life, and 
serving a government that systematically oppresses native people. Their 
stories give an important human face to the combat soldier and show the 
lasting affects of war on individuals, families and communities.
