Tas, kurio néra

Following on the tracks of Augustinas Baltrusaitis, a well-known filmmaker from the Soviet era, the cineast constructs a journey that closely interweaves the real and imaginary. He confronts his own visions of the disappearance of things and people with the failing memory or ignorance of the witnesses he meets-the filmmaker’s old neighbours and friends, who do not even know whether he is still alive. A man and an epoch have thus gone by. After this exploration of memory and forgetting, when Baltrusaitis is found well and truly alive, what the film reveals is as much an apparition as a man of flesh.
