BLIZZARD OF SOULS pays stark witness to the horrors and brutality of the First World War, as seen through the eyes of Artūrs, an innocent 17-year-old farm-boy turned soldier. Despite being underage, Artūrs is conscripted, along with his father, a former marksman, in one of Latvia’s first national battalions. As his regiment tries to survive the trenches, his wide-eyed and naive search for glory is quickly derailed by the stark realities of war.
