Remember, Thou Art Clay
Lithuania’s oldest factory breathes life into the next generation of workers and the clay bricks they toil to produce. The spaces, their textures and sounds, transport us to an uncertain, mysterious dimension. The decrepit factory, the Sisyphean labour it extracts, presents us with our own mortality. Like bricks we are but clay.

Director’s Biography
Elvina Nevardauskaitė and David Heinemann
Elvina hails from Lithuania, and David from Canada. The two met in London and founded Broken Island Films. Together they have made three short films, a drama and two documentaries. While co-directing, Elvina takes charge of the image, and David the sound. They share a fascination with the ambiguities of human perception, particularly in relation to experiences of the inner life. Their latest film, Voices Apart, was honoured with a Research in Film Award 2020 by the UK-based Arts and Humanities Research Council.
