How to Divorce During the War
Was really vibing with this for the first 30 or so minutes. I think theres some really great direction within the relationship stuff. Lost me a bit once it was really in motion though.
Both Zygimante Elena Jakstaite and Marius Repsys are excellent at playing extremely flawed human beings, but it almost felt like that aspect of the film was at odds with what it was trying to say.
