Šoblė Film Festival: BURN AFTER SHOWING

This year we are hosting the 8th edition of the festival. The slogan of this year’s festival is – Burn After Showing. The idea is based on the search of the truth and authenticity of human relationship; of the self in the modern social-network saturated life, which is estranging people as never before. This topic invites directors to open up – to show what is dear to them, to reveal their secrets and stand naked in front of an audience. Show something, that you would like to immediately Burn After Showing.

Name’s origin

The title of the festival was inspired by the founder of the Cinema and TV Department of LMTA, film director and creator of documentaries Henrikas Šablevičius (1930–2004), who was called Šoblė by his colleagues and students.
