About The Mills of Fate
A love triangle - a terminally ill university teacher, a blind girl and a young bard. In the background of it all - the wild arrival of the capitalism, political conflicts, city life and the beautiful nature of Latvia. In the end love will conquer everything, though not everybody will live to witness that.
Directed by Janis Streics, The Mills of Fate leans on a strong ensemble — Ivars Kalnins, Artūrs Skrastiņš, Agnese Zeltiņa — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1997.
