Director
Egl? Budvytyt?

In this hypnotic and experimental short film from director Egl? Budvytyt?, a group of young wanderers drifts through a liminal Lithuanian landscape, their movements guided by an unseen, collective impulse. The narrative unfolds as a quiet, almost ritualistic journey where the boundaries between human, nature, and spirit begin to dissolve. The characters, unnamed and enigmatic, seem to be in search of something intangible—perhaps a lost connection to the earth or a form of radical, shared consciousness. Their motivations are not spoken aloud but are felt through their synchronized gestures and the haunting, ambient soundscape that accompanies them. The central conflict is not between people, but between the rigid structures of modern society and the raw, anarchic pulse of the natural world. As the group moves through forests and abandoned spaces, they engage in a subtle, non-verbal rebellion, challenging the viewer to reconsider what it means to be alive and aware. Blending documentary-like observation with surreal, dreamlike sequences, the film’s tone is both meditative and unsettling, creating an atmospheric meditation on animism, collectivity, and quiet defiance.
