In Field Trip a forest warden takes us through Karosta and its environs. Karosta was once an important Soviet military naval base in Latvia. Travelling by car, our guide not only tells us about Karosta's history but also about repression under governments and the military. The video mirrors processes involved with changing identity and takes us on a journey through living and constantly changing history.
