[Credits] [Tickets & Termine]] [Trailer]

Dreaming of escape from the ble­ak­ne­ss of their indus­tri­al home­town, two 13-year-olds, Marija and Kristina, form a uni­que bond at a local mode­ling school, whe­re the pro­mi­se of a bet­ter life pushes girls to vio­la­te their bodies in incre­asing­ly extre­me ways.
„Through the sto­ry of young girls navi­ga­ting toxic land­scapes, I wan­ted to explo­re the con­cept of the human body – the body as a pro­ject, cur­ren­cy, an object of desi­re, the body as a source of pain and magic.” Saulė Bliuvaitė
