My Father the Banker, Latvia 2015, Ieva Ozolina, 68 min
Self-made banker Boriss Osipovs achieves quick success
immediately after the collapse of the USSR, but flees Latvia to avoid arrest
for illegal operations. Fifteen years later, his family receives a photograph
from Interpol of an elderly gentleman with the same name who resides in a
Malaysian mental asylum. Could it be him? Despite the reservations of her
family, his daughter, documentary director Ieva Ozolina starts an investigation
to find out the truth about the man in the photograph. My Father the Banker is
an emotional story about a man who loses himself in times of change... and the
daughter who hopes to find him.
