About us

We are a non-governmental organization founded in 2005 by a group of like-minded people, working independently in the field of film and audiovisual media. Since our very establishment, we are sharing what we ourselves believe in. After revealing the first open-air cinema series in Lithuania, we continue to be sensitive to local needs, open to innovation and international trends.

We are committed to fostering media education and the cognition of film culture, through organizing screenings of unconventional cinema, inviting discussions and informal conversations, and helping filmmakers to develop and produce their first films. We preserve audiovisual heritage and uphold its relevance, promote gender equality in the film industry through research, and create space for silenced or less-heard voices in the field of film culture.
