David and Goliath

“Dāvids un Goliāts” (David and Goliath) is a Latvian documentary about two talented brothers Kristaps and Krists Kanuks from Kuldiga, Latvia. The older brother Kristaps, who's been in a wheelchair and has had speech difficulties ever since he was born was able to develop his talent - rap – coming up with lyrics that rhyme and putting them over a beat and he does that on the spot - improvising. He’s younger brother Krists, on the other hand, has really found his passion in BMX freestyle, and he's among the best riders in Latvia in this discipline. The movies are about the dreams of these adolescents, talent, their responsibilities regarding each other, the ability to keep moving forward and enjoy life. In the modern days, when most adolescents are caught up in the virtual reality and videogames, the movie works as a reminder about the value of family, humanity and responsibility. About things that give meaning to our life.
