To receive the USSR State Prize, a theater or film artist had to meet certain requirements. First of all, have talent. Honored Artist of the Latvian SSR Lilita Ozolina received this prestigious award.
Starting conditions
Large-scale processes taking place in the country leave deep traces in the fates of ordinary citizens. Lilita Arvidovna Ozolinya was born on November 19, 1947. The family at that time lived in Riga. The child grew up and watched how the people around him live. The girl was taught from an early age to work and accuracy. Mother in the period until 1940 worked as an assistant director at the Riga film studio, which belonged to German citizens. My father served as a pilot on local airlines. During the war, they were in a settlement in places not so remote.
Lilita studied well at school. I found a common language with classmates. Diligently mastered the English language. The girl's favorite subjects were biology and music lessons. In those days, nursing courses operated in every educational institution. Ozolinya successfully completed these courses and made realistic plans to get a medical education. However, the home environment, communication with the mother made appropriate adjustments to the girl's mood. And in high school, she began to prepare for an acting career.
Professional activity
In the biography of Lilita, it is noted that after graduating from school she entered the "People's Studio of Film Actor", created at the local film studio. After completing the first year, the talented student was admitted to the troupe of the famous Dailes theater. The young actress organically fit into the measured schedule. I did not miss rehearsals and tried to clearly fulfill the wishes and requirements of the directors. Simultaneously with her work in the theater, Lilitu was attracted by creativity in the cinema. She played her debut role on the screen in the film "When the rain and wind knock on the window."
Audiences and critics alike welcomed the film. For Ozolini, this was the first step, after which began, so to speak, a triumphal procession on the screens of the country. The actress received universal recognition after the release of the film "The Long Road in the Dunes". Lilita played the role of Martha. Many viewers called her that in their letters. The audience's love was limitless. The girls did the same hairstyle as Martha. Quite deservedly for this image, Ozolinya received the State Prize.
Essays on personal life
The actress, demanded by the directors, continued to work fruitfully on the set. She was greeted with joy in The Personal Life of Santa Claus, The Double Trap, and A Brief Instruction in Love. Lilita easily changed her role. She was easily recognized both in a positive character and in a negative one. After the Soviet Union ceased to exist, degradation began at the Riga Film Studio. Ozolinya began to devote more time to theatrical affairs.
Very little is known about the actress's personal life. Apparently, Lilita was getting married. But secretly and not for long. The ex-wife hides the name of her husband from annoying journalists. Ozolinya gave birth to and raised a daughter who is now in business.
