 I don't even know what day is it, Blimey. Baltic Soul was on full display at the 6th annual Baltic Film Festival, which ran from March 1st through March 3rd at Emerson's Paramount Center. The festival kicked off with a panel discussion from the filmmakers of the movies being shown, where they discussed topics surrounding their films. Creative, reflective, and rebellious. So when people read about our festival, those are the three adjectives that we try to get them to see. Zivile Gallego, who produced two films screened over the weekend, says she hopes Baltic media will expand from television and become more prominent in film. I'm from Lithuania. I'm a producer, and here in the festival I have two films. And I like to tell big stories. And I think what you can't really do into television is that we're fast moving. You can dedicate more time creating films, and you can go deeper into the topics or into the subject, which you want to reveal. Attendees say they hope to learn more about Baltic culture and see more recognition of Baltic cinema throughout the U.S. I'm from Latvia, from Riga, from Tassar Film Company. And it's always very special to know the motivation why people are doing these films. My boyfriend is from Lithuania, and I have been just enamored with the culture. And coming to this film festival brings me closer to that culture. The Baltic Film Festival's panel discussion and film premiere was followed by a celebratory reception at Fajitas and Vitas.
