Drifting Apart

On a quiet summer morning, a man and a woman glide across a tranquil lake in their kayaks. Although they move together, an emotional distance separates them. Their journey takes a sudden turn as they enter a dark, mysterious river. For the man, it’s familiar territory; for the woman, it’s an unsettling and intimidating unknown. As they reach the shore and step out, they struggle to bridge the gap between them, but the harder they try, the more elusive their connection becomes.

Directed by Martynas Kundrotas, Drifting Apart leans on a strong ensemble — Mantas Zemleckas, Miglė Polikevičiūtė — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
