Pietinia Kronikas

Didn't expect much by going to see this movie, but ended up being surprised.

Usually I don't like Lithuanian movies, because most of them are just based on other movie scripts, and acting is terrible, but this movie was something different.

It's bassed on 90s Lithuania, as I have never experienced it, this movie was very interesting. Well shot scenes, good camera work, 90s clothing and style.

Only bad thing was a poor plot. 2 hours of screen time and as a main character said: Kaip ir nieka nenutika ( Nothing really happened ). Maybe just some charakter improvement, but couldn't say that it was big. Everything stayed the same.

Wow, "Pietinia Kronikas" is an absolute gem! This film brilliantly captures the essence of 90s Lithuania, taking you on a nostalgic trip that's both heartfelt and genuine. The characters are so authentic; it's like they've stepped right out of that era. The attention to detail is impeccable-from the fashion and hairstyles to the cars and even the food, everything screams 90s. The soundtrack? Spot on! It perfectly complements the mood and vibe of the time. The story, based on Rimantas Kmita's original work, is a true coming-of-age tale that doesn't sugarcoat the struggles of youth. It's raw, real, and incredibly relatable. This isn't just a movie; it's a window into a world that feels both familiar and enlightening. For anyone who wants to experience the spirit of 90s Lithuania, "Pietinia Kronikas" is a must-watch.

"Pietinia Kronikas" is one of the best Lithuanian films to come out in years. It's a heartfelt, nostalgic journey into the world of youth - full of humour, mischief and the everyday realities of a past era. The film captures the spirit of the time so authentically that you might find yourself smiling in recognition, seeing reflections of your own experiences on the screen. It's a rare kind of movie that resonates across generations. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to relive those days, and to younger folks curious about how life used to be. The acting feels natural, the language and atmosphere are true to the period, and the whole experience leaves you with a warm, bittersweet feeling. A true 10/10 - you've got to check it out.

"The Southern Chronicles" is one of the most vivid time capsules capturing Lithuanian youth life, growing up in 90's. The sentimental details in the settings and sceneries brings back to rough reality of 90's. As much it has the most simple way of showing the simplicities of the problems of that period of life it also showcases the thoughtfulness and deep meanings behind of every idea that characters express. Even though the storyline is not fully unique, but the main character's development and progress stumbles you to carry on watching it.

To put it in the nutshell: Simple but quite deep and sentimental movie about youth life in 90's.

It is indeed of the best lithuanian movies reflecting the culture of 90s. This was Lithuania back then. Main character is unexpectedly well played.

All the intellectual touches about literature, sports, sex, relationships and scenery of Siauliai is like a poem and a feeling expressed in a unique way. Story is easy to watch. Romance is sometimes with questions. Questioning the existence of the young person. Questioning why it was the way it was. Seaside at the end is truly a scene from my own life. Soundtrack is not boring. Scenery of boring apartament buildings is true reality in post soviet countries.
