Zwarte Ogen plot

In this documentary, Jan Bosdriesz goes in search of the traces of the Russian singer Pjotr Leschenko. The important places in his life, his restaurant in Riga, his heirs, but also emotions and memories of people for whom his music is linked to important moments in their lives. The journey begins with a 78 rpm record that puts man back in the 1930s and 1940s. Eastern Europe, communism, but also the ideals and taboos that existed at that time, including within the family in which the documentary maker grew up.
