The article features an interview with Mārtiņš Jurevics, a cinematographer whose work is recognized in the nominations for the 'Lielais Kristaps 2025' National Film Awards, where 36 films received nominations. Jurevics highlights the significance of the films 'Lotus' and 'Nospiedumi', noting how each presents a unique narrative style and visual storytelling. 'Lotus', directed by Signe Birkova, is lauded for its dreamlike and fantastical environment, contrasting sharply with 'Nospiedumi', directed by Alise Zariņa, which is described as a more realistic contemporary tale.

In the interview, Jurevics elaborates on the differing techniques required for these two films, emphasizing that working with various directors leads to completely distinct filmmaking experiences. He reflects on how the creative process varies between the highly imaginative world of 'Lotus' and the grounded reality presented in 'Nospiedumi'. This distinction illustrates the flexibility and adaptability required of a cinematographer to effectively realize the vision of their directors.

Jurevics conveys enthusiasm for his role, stating that the most intriguing aspect of being a cinematographer is the opportunity to collaborate with different directors, each demanding unique approaches in visual storytelling. This collaboration, alongside the diverse narratives of the nominated films, contributes to the vibrant landscape of Latvian cinema and underscores the importance of such cultural awards in recognizing artistic achievements.
