Lithuania has two independence days:

The Restoration of the State Day on the 16th of February and The Restoration of Independence Day on the 11th of March.

"Emilia.Breaking Free" is a suspense drama about the fight for freedom in Soviet-repressed Lithuania - in a society where a more satiated life seems more important than honour, a clear conscience or humanity. It is the spring of 1972, when young people take to the streets of Kaunas to demand freedom for Lithuania, and Emilia - a future actress and the hero of this intriguing drama - is marching with the protesting crowd towards the life of their dreams. But everything takes an unexpected turn. Having come to Kaunas with what is perhaps the greatest secret of her life, Emilia has to fight not only for her own fate, but for that of her friends as well. And life in Kaunas is far from what she had dreamed of. She is not sure the lies, betrayal and the love that struck her like lightning will help her keep her secret or even her life. But she is prepared to take on anything for the sake of what she believes in.

The event is a part of the "Cinema Wednesdays" program which is organized by the Cultural Workshop Ayion Omologiton in collaboration with Cynema Xanthis 3.
