DEDICATED TO YOU BUT YOU WEREN'T LISTENING (2017)
@dedicated.to.you.but
'dedicated to you but you weren’t listening' is a film produced and edited during a road trip from Šilutė in Lithuania, the town where i was born (but had never returned to since), to the German town of Bayreuth, a town with a very similar spelling to the French word for Beirut, a city that i now call home
the road trip was planned by Google Maps when i asked it to draw a route from Šilutė to Bayreuth. using buses as a form of transportation, i traveled for about 10 days, filming during the day and editing the videos during the night
together, the episodes form a sort of travel journal, exploring how the concepts of home and identity are projected unto landscapes that we think we relate to
