Frost – Synopsis
The young Lithuanian Rokas accepts the order to deliver a lot of humanitarian aid for the Ukrainian army, plunged in full separatist conflict with Russia. In the company of his girlfriend Inga, he will discover the horrors of war. After an episode involving a group of journalists living in a strange hedonistic bubble, this couple of travelers will go through a crisis that will transform their lives. With a story that navigates between disturbing silences and sharp dialogues, the director Sharunas Bartas elaborates a kind of road movie that shows the desolation and tedium of its protagonists in the face of the fears generated by the warfare in which they are immersed.
