Sex tourism in Riga, Latvia - a short documentary.

For my final major college project, I decided to produce a film about sex tourism in my home town of Riga. As well as meeting a wide variety of male tourist groups from all over Europe, I interviewed a lot of locals that had come in to direct and indirect contact with the sex industry - everyone from a local rickshaw driver to the director of a company that organises stag weekends.
This film is neither supporting, nor opposing sex tourism, but is a mere look in to a subject that i have always found interesting and intriguing.


A big thank you to Luke Quinn and everyone in Year 2 Film & TV production at Reigate School of Art ,Design & Media, East Surrey College for making this possible.

Enjoy!

I just came back from a 4-days stay in Riga. I was really worried about tourist-scams but now I can say this is not so likely to occur as one can imagine just reading discussions about Riga.

Anyway some bars that charge extortionate prices exists and they are well-known by everyone and the police do nothing to stop this, is not something you can expect in a civilized country.

Anyway following the advice of some people from Riga (special thanks to Katrina!) I really enjoyed the city.

The worst thing about this documentary is the narrator's unbelievably stiff upper lip.
