“After the past few years marked by big changes and uncertainty, it’s important to remember the joy and wonder of watching films together on the big screen, and the power of cinema to transport us to other worlds, introduce us to new ideas and perspectives, and ignite our imaginations,” says NYBFF Head of Programs Jūle Rozīte. “As we celebrate the global success of Baltic films at major international film festivals, we invite you to join us at Scandinavia House and see the world through Baltic eyes.”
