Join us for a live online conversation with director Jurgis Matulevicius.
During Lithuania’s 1941 Lietukis Garage Massacre, Andrius Gluosnis brutally kills Isaac, his Jewish neighbor, whom he believes had reported him to the NKVD. Decades later, Gluosnis’ old friend, now a famous movie director, returns to Soviet Lithuania with a screenplay detailing the events of the massacre. Gluosnis is still plagued with guilt and, when the screenplay is taken in as evidence, images from the past begin to collide with his present. Visually stunning, “Isaac” takes viewers through several decades, exposing trauma, the shock of war and the complicated nature of a friendship diverged.
Jurgis Matulevicius is a graduate of the Lithuanian Music and Theatre Academy with a degree in film directing. He has worked with well-known Lithuanian film directors Šarunas Bartas, Algimantas Puipa and others. His critically acclaimed short films have screened at festivals in Lithuania and abroad.
