Still Life

About This Movie

Still Life is a contemplative drama that dives into the haunting echoes of family ties.

The atmosphere is thick with nostalgia, and the ghostly presence of her late grandmother is almost tangible, pushing Elīna to confront the weight of inherited struggles. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection to linger, making the viewer feel the heaviness of unspoken words. The performances carry a raw authenticity, especially in the subtle interactions between Elīna and her mother.
