The Corridor
Directed by Šarūnas Bartas1h 25m1995
The atmosphere of a corridor between yesterday and tomorrow, where many doors open into the unknown. A series of faces, gestures and images both real and imagined time. A fragmentary narrative without dialogue depicting several people in Vilnius.
Our read: The Corridor (1995) reads as a heavy, slow-burn, surreal drama · art-house · lithuanian entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
Heavy, slow-burn, measured drama / art-house, surreal in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold.
