Being an adult is hard. It's especially hard when you’re only fifteen. Danutė is the only "adult" in her family. Clearly, that’s far too complex a role for a teenager. Every day, she faces external limitations that restrict her potential. A child like that measures everything through the lens of survival and takes on responsibility as her only form of protection.

June 2022 marked the 50th anniversary of the death of historian and public figure Jerzy Orda, one of the most prominent personalities of 20th-century Vilnius. Orda's life, full of dramatic twists and turns, gives filmmakers an opportunity to reflect on the limits of human freedom under totalitarianism.

Gintaras now drives a tow truck from Lithuania to the north of Norway. Ten years ago, he was a piano teacher. He accepts harsh conditions gently and does not feel lost. The mountains and roads replace him a warm pillow, and the loads' and cars' hum replace music.

Narcissus (from Greek Narkissos) shares the root nark-, with narcosis and narcotic. All these words have the same origin in the verb narkaō – to intoxicate through a strong smell. I was particularly interested to find out why a handsome and overall fortunate man says he never feels happy. He draws people in, but ends up hurting them, yet he is impossible to resist.
