This TV documentary offers a poignant look at the partially destroyed bridge from Irpin to Kyiv, which has become a lifeline for people being evacuated from the war-torn city of Irpin. Irpin is a city in Ukraine, in the Kyiv region, located on the banks of the Irpin River, eight kilometers from the capital. As the war continues, Irpin has become one of the most dangerous places in Ukraine, while the partially destroyed bridge has become a lifeline for residents. People evacuated from Irpin are taken by car to the destroyed part of the bridge, while others walk across the river to reach the Kyiv side and continue on to safer areas. The day before March 13, when US and Ukrainian journalists were killed in Irpin, an LTV film crew was at the bridge. Currently, international media are no longer allowed into the city.

A look into how it is to work in the Covid-19 area at a Latvian hospital. Created by a team of journalists of Latvian Television: Aija Kinca, Ivans Milovs, Dace Kokle, and Edmunds Rimšāns.

Ten years ago, on November 21, 2013, the Zolitūde microdistrict in Riga experienced the greatest tragedy in terms of the number of victims since Latvia regained its independence. As a result of two collapses, 54 people died and dozens were injured under the rubble of the Maxima supermarket. The rescue operation to find survivors in the rubble lasted almost 94 hours. Relatives waited with bated breath and prayed together with all the people of Latvia, who watched the unfathomable scenes of the tragedy on live television. So far, only one person has been found guilty by the court. The film recreates the day of the tragedy and seeks an answer to the question of why justice did not prevail, as this would bring peace to the souls of the dead and soothe the still festering wounds of those left behind.
