Full programme of the event in Marijampolė, "Spindulis" cinema (Kauno g. 13, Marijampolė):13 September, 17:30 (small hall) "A Woman and Her Four Husbands" (dir. by A. Puipa, 1984) A feature film directed by A. Puipa based on the novel "A Novel in the Dunes" by Danish writer Holger Drachman. The action is set in the old Lithuania of the Little Lithuania.In the 19th century, at the foot of the dunes in the Curonian Spit, a fisherman's hut, constantly filled with sand, stands. An old fisherman and his two sons live there. One day, a woman wanders in. One by one, the sea takes her loved ones. But life goes on - new life, new worries, new hopes emerge. "With this work, director A.Puipa has opened up to himself (and to Lithuanian cinema as a whole) a picturesque, strange, and unfamiliar material of Lithuania Minor. It is treated with care, but in a non-british way, "fantasising", as the author himself said, a number of realities. Since "A Woman and Her Men" approaches a saga, an allegory, a philosophical parable, the characters of the work - despite the exclusivity of place and time - do not even have names: simply men and women, the eternal struggle with the threatening, albeit fascinating, nature, the necessity of survival, the natural, universal circle of the coexistence of nature and man," Saulius Macaitis. 14 September, 5:30 pm (small hall) "Feelings" (dir. A. Grikevičius, A. Dausa, 1968) The war is ending, on one side of Kuršmariiai there are still the Germans, on the other side - the Soviets. Morta, the wife of Kaspars, a fisherman from the Seaside, dies in childbirth. The young widower, left with his twins, moves across the bay to his brother Andrius, who lives with Kaspars' ex-girlfriend Agne. The latter does not hide her dissatisfaction and turns the newcomer in to a policeman. This film, which tells the drama of fisherman Kaspar's feelings, is characterised by a strong national colour. The themes of love, loyalty, duty, and complex inner struggles are set against the backdrop of the first post-war years. The story of intimate relationships turns into an almost epic picture of time and its impact on people. With the exception of Lithuania, the film was banned from being shown throughout the Soviet Union.
