Deimantas Narkevičius | Lithuania | 2002 | 19' |

| IFFR 2003

Based on monologues of two individuals who do not know each other and who remain unseen. These monologues were recorded as a young sculptor, the male character of the film, gets ready to leave Lithuania, while the text of a female student was recorded just after she had left her mother country. Both characters are not typical economic or political emigrants. They share a common drive for new experiences in another country, another cultural context.
