Syndromes Of Mimicry

What could possibly link a village nightclub where a musician mindlessly recites popular Western melodies, a mute black man delivering flowers in a Hussar uniform, and a yoga class attracting people in search of religious identity? For the director Anastasija, those are the syndromes of mimicry – the imitation of the Western concepts that occurred in Lithuania after regaining its independence. In the series of short sketches, the film-satire presents various attempts in the identity search in social, political and cultural field in the post-soviet Lithuania.
