The Old Man and the Land
Robertas Verba’s first documentary film, described by film critic Živile Pipinyte as “the ‘ice-breaker’ which broke through the ice of Soviet ideology to form the peculiar stylistics of Lithuanian documentary film.” The hero of this film is the bright Lithuanian villager Anupras, whose archaic worldview becomes a symbol of the ethno-cultural Lithuanian identity that was often opposed to the identity constructed by Soviet propaganda.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The Old Man and the Land has mixed reviews with a rating of 5.5/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.
Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.
A classic from 1965. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
