About This Movie

1/10 Zemesmātes biroja offers a haunting glimpse into the remnants of a forgotten place. Set in Riga's oldest cemetery, the film captures the eerie atmosphere of an abandoned site once intended for renewal—a park, they said. Instead, it’s become a refuge for the lost: inebriated souls, harried mothers, and roaming dogs. The pacing is both slow and contemplative, letting you soak in the poignant decay and lingering memories. There’s no flashy direction or big performances here, just a raw, unfiltered look at life's oddities and the stories left behind. It's a documentary that feels like wandering through an unkempt garden of history, where each frame tells a whisper of the past. Definitely sticks with you.
