A moving world of spirits and ghosts, condemned to brush against one another without really meeting since they have all emerged from a single perpetual dream: that of a young man who no longer wants to wake up, immersed as he is in this world of fascinating spectres.

A lithuanian village just after the end of the second World War: Neither German nor Russian its inhabitants must, despite their wounds, find new craft to dream of a better future ahead of them.

The film portrays Lukša's attempts, in trips to western Europe, to gain support for the armed anti-Soviet resistance (known as the Forest Brothers), whose fortunes in a guerrilla war against Soviet authorities were waning, largely due to widespread infiltration and harsh crackdowns by the NKVD.

Facts is a dramatization of a massacre in a Lithuanian village during World War II when Nazis rounded up over 100 men, women, and children accused of partisan activity and then torched the houses in which they were held. Using Russian interrogations of a few survivors, the testimony of villagers, and some of the Germans responsible for the killing, the film gradually reconstructs the event and its context.

A faithful adaptation of the story of famous Lithuanian author Baltusis both in subject and artistic presentation. Three brothers Laurynas, Stanislovas and Antanas fall in love with one woman Kazyte and dramatic events make all three brothers go to jail for homicide, while she lives alone on their land.

The film is set in Lithuania after the Second World War. It shows dramatic events in a small Lithuanian farming community, where people are split between the Soviets and the "brothers in the woods", who are fighting to defend their land from the Soviets after the end of the Second World War.

This film is war parabola with expressive visual style. This not typical point of view about the war for Soviet cinema.
