Adapted from the book Blizzard of Souls by Aleksandrs Grins and based on true events, THE RIFLEMAN pays stark witness to the horrors and brutality of the First World War. Too young to fight but old enough to die, sixteen-year-old Arturs enlists to serve on the Eastern Front with dreams of becoming a hero. Conscripted into one of Latvia’s first national battalions, he soon discovers the grim reality of trench warfare. Fighting alongside his father and brother, Arturs experiences the loss of his home and loved ones while growing up surrounded by constant danger and death on the battlefield.
