Mirror Man

Budding lawyer Vik is disappointed in himself. He tries to change and please everyone until he loses sight of himself. Vik meets the mysterious Mirror Man who offers to help him regain his self-esteem and become the kind of person Vik dreams of becoming. Vik agrees, but the Mirror Man at times leaves Vik in situations where he surprises others not just by his new-found self-confidence, but also by insolence that causes a rift with his closest friends. Soon the Mirror Men in Vik’s life are too many to control, and when he tries to back away – it’s too late.

Directed by Agnese Laizāne, Mirror Man leans on a strong ensemble — Agnese Budovska, Jurģis Spulenieks, Pēteris Galviņš — 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 2015.
