Ukrainian Film Days will be held in Vilnius in April
The screenings will take place at the Skalvija cinema (2 A. Goštauto St.), according to Ukrinform, citing the Facebook page of the Ukrainian Center in Lithuania.
Audiences will have the opportunity to see films across a variety of genres—from documentaries about war to musicals and dramas. All films will be screened with Lithuanian subtitles.
Festival schedule:
April 9 (6:30 p.m.) and April 11 (1:00 p.m.): “War Through the Eyes of Animals”;
April 10 (6:00 PM): “Birds and Beasts: The World of Gnizdovsky”;

April 11 (5:00 PM) and April 12 (3:30 PM): “Okean Elzy: Storm Watch”;
April 12 (1:00 PM): “Diviia”
The organizers emphasize that all Ukrainian citizens currently in Lithuania are eligible to attend the screenings free of charge.
To receive a free ticket, you must go directly to the Skalvija cinema box office and present documents confirming Ukrainian citizenship.
The project aims not only to promote Ukrainian culture in Lithuania but also to support the Ukrainian community by providing access to their native art while living abroad.
As a reminder, the 212th anniversary of Taras Shevchenko’s birth was celebrated in the Lithuanian capital. The traditional commemoration took place in the Old Town near the monument to the poet, which depicts him as a young man during his time in Vilnius from 1829 to 1831.
