'I Remember Everything, Richard' is a 1966 film produced during Soviet period at the Riga Film Studio. Another name for the film is 'Rock and Splinters' , which is normally applied to the uncut version.

The film's director was Rolands Kalni.

Plot



Synopsis in brief: Three friends Jnis, Zigis and Riards are mobilized into the Latvian Legion during World War II, where they fight against the Red Army in the Volkhov Marshes. Zigis is killed while attempting to desert to the Soviets. Twenty years later the two surviving friends meet again. Jnis has stayed in Soviet Latvia and accepted the new order, while Riards arrives from abroad, having become an agent to the Western powers hostile to the Soviet system.

While produced during the Soviet period and being full of Soviet propaganda clichs, the film rather objectively describes the events surrounding the participation of Latvian Legion in battles against Soviets on the Leningrad Front during World War II.
