Documentary filmmaker Nerijus Milerius (“Exemplary Behaviour”) invited his former student Lina Luzyte (“Together Forever”, “The Castle”) to direct this narrative psychological thriller while investigating Japanese disappearances. Cinematographer Vytautas Katkus (Locarno winner “Toxic”) captures the dark subject matter perfectly, jumping between moving cars and shooting in time-lapse.
