Melbārdis
Latvia's most decorated bobsledder Oskars Melbārdis reveals what it's like to be a professional athlete and what it has demanded of his life in an hour-long, personal and emotional story – the latest documentary film from Tet studio, "Melbārdis." Armands Tripāns' film is about a man who, with his first step in training, made himself a medalist and at the same time took a step towards the destruction of his physical and mental health.
