DESCRIPTION:\n	Introduced by film critic Lukas Brasiskis \n\n\n	Presented b
 y the Consulate General of Lithuania\, and supported by Lithuanian Culture
  Institute \n	\n	\n	Lithuania/Bulgaria/Poland. Dir. Egle Vertelyte\, 2017\
 , 91 mins. Digital projection. With Egle Mikulionyte\, Vyto Ruginis\, Andr
 ius Bialobzeskis. In Lithuanian\, English\, and Russian with English subti
 tles. New York Premiere. Garnering comparisons to the work of Aki Kaurismä
 ki\, this deadpan Lithuanian charmer is a dryly comic look back at the Wil
 d West post-Soviet years of the early 1990s. Irena is the not-exactly-popu
 lar manager of a communal pig farm in a struggling rural outpost. Just as 
 the enterprise seems headed for bankruptcy\, high-rolling\, smooth-talking
  Lithuanian-American businessman Bernardas breezes into town with an offer
  to buy the farm. Is the unctuous stranger the answer to Irena’s prayers? 
 Or is something more sinister afoot? Blending black humor with moments of 
 surreal poetry\, the feature debut from Egle Vertelyte is alternately witt
 y and tragic in the way it chronicles Eastern Europe’s rocky road from com
 munism to capitalism. The film will be introduced by Lukas Brasiskis\, fil
 m critic and a Ph.D. candidate and adjunct lecturer in the Department of C
 inema Studies at New York University. \n	\n	\n	Tickets: $15 ($11 seniors a
 nd students / $9 youth (ages 3–17) / free for children under 3 and Museum
