The productions have been made in collaboration with the World Wide Fund for Nature, which provides choreographers advice and information on the Baltic Sea and fish resources in it, "Rīgas mežiem", which introduced artists to the life of parks in today's Riga, as well as GRIF, which took care of work clothes and human protection."
