A young man and a young woman drive to a village to find out something...There is a sense of familiarity, and of sharing the trauma of a horrible event. They both have a profound need to understand, but they couldn't be more different. One moves with aggressiveness, the other moves with care, but they both need the same thing: to be in contact with the last people and spaces one of their loved ones was in contact with, to sink into his waters, to believe that a person's presence remains beyond death. Skillfully doling out narrative information piece by piece and layer upon layer in scenes marked by elegant, sinister single takes, Bareiša has created a foreboding, yet ultimately hopeful portrait of people racked with trauma and unresolved anger. Lithuania's submission to the 95th Academy Awards.
