Neon Spring by Matīss Kaža (© Aija Melbārde) Young Latvian director Matīss Kaža is now finalising post-production on his second fiction feature, a drama entitled Neon Spring. The story of this new film, penned by the director himself in tandem with Marija Luīze Meļķe, centres on a 20-year-old woman called Laine. Following her parents’ separation, her father becomes emotionally estranged and her ten-year-old brother Bruno starts having trouble at school; furthermore, she isn’t ready to take up her mother’s duties. At a drugged-up rave, Laine befriends seasoned partygoer Gunda. Their relationship suddenly – and unexpectedly – becomes intimate. The neon spring of Riga’s techno scene blossoms, and Laine begins to question her sexuality and identity at a time when her family is falling apart. She finds an escape in the drugs, clubs, festivals and afterparties as she struggles to hold together her fast-dissolving relationship
