Director’s Biography

Miglė Križinauskaitė-Bernotienė

Miglė Križinauskaitė-Bernotienė (b. 1987) is an audiovisual artist and experimental documentary filmmaker, who is currently based in Utena (Lithuania). In 2020, she graduated from the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre with an MA in Film Directing. Currently, she is a practice-based PhD candidate and her field of interest lies in personal experimental travelogue filmmaking. The artist chooses to present abstract ideas through a subjective and personal way of storytelling. Her work often explores the subject of the erosion of memory and time, and intertwines the reality around us with the abstract and with the forms of experimental art. The filmmaker has directed five short films, which have screened at numerous festivals, such as 25 FPS Festival, (S8) Mostra de Cinema Periférico, Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival, Experimental Film Festival Process, Festival Obskura – Analog film festival, and others.
