About The Return of Independence
Four Lithuania's founding fathers suddenly come back to life 100 years later after signing Lithuania's declaration of independence. Now it's stored somewhere in Berlin's archives, and they are on a mission to get it back.
Directed by Saulius Baradinskas, The Return of Independence leans on a strong ensemble — Gediminas Storpirštis, Ramūnas Cicėnas, Algirdas Dainavičius — 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 comedy titles of 2018.
