How to Divorce During the War is Lithuania’s official submission for the 2027 Oscars! ⭐️

Following Andrius Blazevicius’ Best Director win at the Sundance Film Festival and screenings at nearly 20 international festivals, the film now begins its campaign for Best International Feature Film - starting with its U.S. theatrical release on August 21.

A proud moment for Lithuanian cinema - and an exciting next chapter for the film.

Congratulations to the entire team!

“We like to scratch at an exposed nerve. We don't shy away from uncomfortable subjects - personal, social, or historical trauma. We're not afraid to make ourselves vulnerable, to go deeper instead of merely skimming the surface.”
- Marija Razgute 🌿

We're happy to share that the latest issue of „Nemunas“ magazine features an in-depth interview with producer Marija Razgutė.

From the evolution of Lithuanian cinema to the realities of producing independent films, Marija speaks candidly about the work, the people, and the ideas that shape the films she brings to the screen.
