septyniolika

„I‘m seventeen“
Five people, five phone talks, five suicides. Different stories about teenagers who have chosen death. Lithuania has the highest suicide rate in the world – why? What is suicide – weak, unjust, desperate action or deliberate revolt against society, destiny and God? „I‘m 17“ – seventeen-year-old’s attempt to speak about seventeen-year-old‘s* Lithuania problems – including homophobia, sexism and gaps in education. Not truly consistent, not truly objective, but open and personal.
*Lithuania regained independence on March 11, 1990

„Man septyniolika“
Penki zmones, penki pokalbiai telefonu, penkios savizudybes. Tarpusavyje nesusijusios istorijos paaugliu, kurie pasirinko mirti. Lietuva savizudybiu kiekiu pirmauja visame pasaulyje - kodel? Kas yra savizudybe – silpnas, neteisingas, desperatiskas poelgis, ar samoningas maistas pries visuomene, likima ir Dieva? „Man 17“ – septyniolikmecio bandymas kalbeti apie septyniolikmetes Lietuvos problemas, vienaip ar kitaip provokuojancias mirti - iskaitant homofobija, seksizma ir svietimo spragas. Ne visai nuoseklus, ne visai objektyvus, bet atviras ir asmeniskas.
