FilmBox
The Lithuanian Film Centre recently began an unusual cultural project in cooperation with the Vilnius Airport. In May of this year, it opened the first movie theatre in an airport passenger lounge in Eastern and Northern Europe. FilmBox is located next to gate A2 and seats 50 viewers. Film times fit local flight schedules and, due to the particular nature of the small airport, only short films, documentaries and animation films are shown.
All films are free of charge, and the theatre is open until the last airplane of the day takes off. The selection of films is also regularly changed. If you happen to fly through Vilnius often, FilmBox guarantees that you’ll get a complete picture of what’s current on the Lithuanian cinema scene, at least in the shorts genre.
FilmBox plans to expand its repertoire this autumn to include films from neighbouring countries. Latvian shorts will be shown in October, European shorts in cooperation with Eurochannel in November, and Estonian shorts in December. Next year’s programme will be devoted to the Nordic countries. So, it’s worth heading to the Vilnius Airport well ahead of time in order to catch a film or two!
