Ernesta [Gelmine Glemzaite] needs some rest and distraction after her husband [Lukas Markevicius] wins a gruelling MMA tournament. Together with her sister Juste [Agne Kaktaite], she organises a weekend at the family holiday home where they can also celebrate the birthday of Juste's husband Tomas [Giedrius Kiela]. Not much happens and Bareisa wastes a lot of time on pointless scenes: Ernesta putting the cushions on the garden chairs, Tomas pruning the garden, Juste sitting motionless in bed staring at her daughter Urte [Olivija Eva Viliüné], a yoga session and the like. She adds to the confusion by showing the dramatic climax twice with minor changes and a different result. Vague, frustrating, but above all boring and meaningless.

At times original, but also confusing as mrklm also said. Especially by playing that one scene twicewith a small change. There must be a thought behind it (I have an idea) but it doesn't really work for the effect. That moment only leads to confusion and you're out of the movie. After that it is also clear quite quickly what happened but it takes until the last scene before we finally see thatand that is already much too late and feels like mustard after the meal. Or worse: as if you have to fall off your chair but a real movie watcher is smarter than that.

The best part is the first half hour when people are just on holiday, camera on and nothing special except ordinary people enjoying their free time. Exactly what I like. But otherwise a typical film that has to rely on the structure instead of the content. 3.0*.
