Lithuania 2006, 30 min, Lithuanian, Hebrew & English subtitles

A young woman is massaging an older woman’s wrinkles. Another woman is lying in bed, yawning, not yet fully awake. A man is running a marathon, breathing hard, sweating with effort. A group of people are lying on the grass and letting out big bursts of laughter. These beautiful, mysterious, and meticulously crafted vignettes appear one by one with no explanation. At first, they seem unconnected; then, slowly, a meditative essay emerges—about transience, harmony between humans and their environment, and clinging to life through the human body, shown here in all its beauty, capability, and finitude.
