The Nest

The Nest follows a young couple of biologists and their two children as they relocate from Riga to a nature reserve. They settle into an old country cottage and begin to repair it, only to encounter the former owner who returns from Canada. This encounter sparks a journey through memories and relationships, particularly reflecting on the owner's past as a guerilla and his first love.

The film delves into the dynamics between the family and the surrounding natural world, symbolized by the title, which represents both the immediate environment and the broader cultural landscape. As the characters navigate their personal and historical connections, they confront the influences of larger powers that shape their lives.
