movies in the
conference room of the hotel Kaunas. Service is free of charge, but service is upon request, hotel administration requires advanced booking and information which
movie in what language tourists are willing to watch. Welcome to spend nice summer evenings at the hotel Kaunas watching visual stories about Lithuania.
MOVIES UPON REQUEST: I NAMINIO AUDIMO DAINOS (length - 25 minutes). The film creating group deemed as important those things that through the ages have affected Lithuanians worldview and distinctlively coloured its creative expressions: the landscape of home, the domestic and artistic details of the surroundings, traditional foods and
drinks, folk handicrafts and articles everything that evokes our, Lithuanians, everyday life, including too our holidays- calendarical, family, religious... Thats how the film encompasses all of Lithuania, all of its regions, the hollows of its lakes and the depths of its skies. IN LOVE WITH LITHUANIA (length 45 minutes). To be in love with LITHUANIA is to love its
beauty, its cultural traditions. This film is about falling in love with Lithuania. European annals have noted this land for over a thousand years, a land that was the last on this continent to continue practicing the ancient pre-Christian Baltic faith, the home of the Pagans. Oce it accepted Christianity, it formed as a powerful nation by the Baltic sea an open and boundless nation devoid of the usual national egoism. Unique commemorative pieces bear witness of its rich historical past in the areas of Trakai, Vilnius, Kaunas, Palanga, Klaipeda and Curonian Spit. This visual story will leave in awe of the exceptional
beauty that cannot be related in words the heart of a harmonious and sacral landscape of Lithuania. Wisps of historical memory subtly intermingle into a modern, rapidly developing Lithuania and its good-hearted people who invite you to learn about this land and love it as they do. THE AMBER ROAD (length 30 minutes). The Amber Road, stretching across germanic and Aestii Baltic lands, enjoined Northern and Southern europe during the 1st and 2nd centuries B.C. The civilizations of Rome and the Baltic Sea interacted along its route. For several centuries, all sorts of people walked this road Romans, Germanic people and the Balts themselves. As historian, Pliny the Elder, attests, the edge of Germania, from where amber was being delivered, was nearly 600 miles from Carnuntum Pannonia, Julian, organizer of the gladiator
games for Emperor Nero, sent a horseman to bring back amber. He carried so much that all the weapons and everyday tools were decorted with amber. The heaviest piece weighed 13 pounds. The film makers reveal secrets, dating back two thousand centuries, on the road from the Baltic Sea to Rome. Mightly battles and everyday life of the antiquity are seen along with fortresses, ruins of shrines and the exacting work of archeologists. KAUNAS THE CITY AT THE CONFLUENCE OF TWO RIVERS. Some people pronounce the name of this city with boredom, scepticism and irony, others - with the deepest respect, faith, love and hope. In his new
video director Arvydas Barysas does not enter into polemics with either of them. Kaunas for him is the medium of the great existence. His camera moves through the epochs of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classicism, captures their relations with the recent historical past and modern day reality. The authors poetic and elated approach to the eternal values turn our attention towards urban monuments, make us raise our eyes to frescoes, elements of interior decor, masterpieces of art created by world famous artists, emphasizing their value, relating them with the eternal source of universal energy that nurtures the human spirit.
