Five And a Half Love Stories in An Apartment in Vilnius – Lithuania – Baltic Film Festival

IVE AND A HALF LOVE STORIES IN AN APARTMENT IN VILNIUS is a collection of intertwined stories, told through the eyes of an old AirBnB apartment. Within the walls of this apartment, we witness five guests experiencing a crisis of love, unaware of the stories that have transpired within the same walls and under the same bedsheets. 

MEGHAN, an Irishwoman stuck in a frustrating marriage, struggles with temptation during her younger sister’s hen party. ISSA and GALIA, an Israeli couple, find their desire to get pregnant colliding with family legacy. PHILIP, an aging Hungarian bachelor, fights for a second chance with a local girl, MYKOLAS, a young stripper, has his secret rendezvous interrupted by unexpected guests. Between each episode JOLANTA, the quiet cleaning lady, returns to wipe away the evidence of their joys and tragedies, while her own delicate love story unfolds.
