From October 22 to 28, the field session of the International Documentary Film Festival Artdocfest/Riga took place in Chisinau, Comrat, and Balti.
The program primarily focused on the realities of life in Russia, featuring films like The Last Relic (Estonia), Lost Island (Switzerland), Holidays (Switzerland), and Manifesto (Russia). Artdocfest also highlighted the ongoing war in Ukraine, presenting two films that premiered at the Berlinale: A Bit of a Stranger (Ukraine, France, Sweden) and Eastern Front (Latvia, Ukraine, Czech Republic). Another film, Everything Will Be Alright (Latvia), explored the experiences of Latvia's Russian-speaking minority.
Nearly all films were presented by their creators.
