A coming-of-age drama and a fast-paced action film tells a story of a group of friends who live, love and struggle in the backdrop of post-war madness. The central figure in the group is the charismatic Šmelingas who soon becomes a legend among his peers. To girls, he is a John-Wayne-type hero; to guys, an intimidating competitor in matters of love. Taking place in the period of 1947 – 1953, Owl Mountain offers a fresh approach to the events which happened in Lithuania at the time, becoming one of the most watched film in 2018.
The renowned director, screenwriter and producer Audrius Juzėnas has been exploring the period of WW2 in this last films too: Getas/The Ghetto, Ekskursantė/The Excursionist – all offering an original and tender perspective. His former film The Excursionist received a National Film Award Silver Crane for Best Film, Best Script, Best Camera and Best Actress.
