    Spectrographies
    Along a fantastic, endless night, a character wanders through cold and bare streets and forests, deserted institutions, uninhabited places, walking, driving, looking, lonely - meeting ghostly apparitions that slip in its wake. Addicted to the teletechnologies of intimacy (telephone, implanted electronic chip), the character seems to feed on the absence of a lost love, whose absence haunts their wandering. (imdb)

    Exemplary Behaviour
    Audrius Mickevicius decided to make this documentary after the murder of his brother, and more particularly when, due to "exemplary behaviour", one of the killers was released after serving only five years of a ten-year sentence. In Lukišk?s Prison, he meets prisoners serving life terms but harbouring hopes of release, and also interviews the French philosopher Bernard Stiegler. Sadly, Mickevicius died of illness and the film was completed by the philosopher Nerijus Milerius.
