Antigravitation

About This Movie

Antigravitation is a fascinating documentary that captures the poetic essence of life in a remote Lithuanian village. Directed by Audrius Stonys, the film unfolds slowly, immersing you in the quiet, contemplative atmosphere of rural existence. An elderly woman, the heart of the narrative, weaves an old folk tale that feels both personal and universal, connecting the viewer to age-old traditions. The pacing is leisurely, allowing moments to breathe, and the visual storytelling, with its striking imagery of the church rooftop, creates a sense of elevation—both physically and metaphorically. There's something quite distinctive in how it marries folklore with the landscape, giving it an ethereal quality that lingers long after the credits roll.
