Bille

The film is set in the late nineteen thirties. Bille is a small girl. She is a child growing up alone. She is strong inside but the people around her do not see it. Her family sets little store by her. She is trying to make sense of the adult world. That world strikes her as full of contradictions. She wants to prove her own worth. Nobody takes her seriously. Bille takes shelter in imagining things. Her imagination is very vivid. She builds a world of her own there. The film was adapted from a book. The book is also called Bille. Its author is Vizma Belševica. Rūta Kronberga and Elīna Vāne appear in the one hundred minute film, a Latvian, Czech and Lithuanian production Ināra Kolmane finished in 2018.
