Deimantas Narkevičius creates complex, poetic explorations of post-Soviet Europe and the relationship of its peoples to the past. Often adopting the aesthetic and techniques of documentary filmmaking, he employs interviews, archive footage, animation and still photography to deal with questions about our political and moral obligations to history, society and memory. Although rooted in the history of his native Lithuania, his films find a wider resonance as deeply intimate studies of ordinary lives lived at times of remarkable turmoil and change.
