Memories in the Clouds (2023)
Memories in the Clouds visualizes Kristina Laine’s (formerly Žičkutė) childhood memories in the Soviet Lithuania. Thoughts blend with impressions in a dream-like, painterly experimental documentary film. The film brings forth Kristina's worldview as a child, during the vast socio-political changes of the collapsing Soviet Union. Kristina's voice leads the audience to a journey through her fading, ephemeral memories and experiences. The film utilizes a combination of techniques: Timelapse videos of a summer sky shot on location in Lithuania, digital volumetric 3D simulation, and modern AI algorithms as animators to visualize the narration into the moving clouds.
Directors: Kristina Laine, Albert Laine.
