Rise, little sister, my little guest,
Have you not slept enough yet?
The New Theatre presents! Poetic performance BEAUŠTANTI (based on the works of Maironis).
Maironis' verses are the rhythm by which the modern Lithuanian language lives. Now, just as a couple of centuries ago, the Voices of Spring and the love story of Jūratė and Kastytis remain the sources of Lithuanian communion and national identity. Resonating amidst sutartinės, music, and dance, these verses intertwine in the poetic performance BEAUŠTANTI into a single narrative about the awakening of our nation.
Screenwriter and director: Šviesa ŠULC
Duration: 1 hr. 20 min.
