Forces of time, memory, change, and the human condition collide in Jonas Mekas' compelling work Lithuania and the Collapse of the USSR (2008). The work's title refers to the historical time when the world watched as Mekas's home country of Lithuania fought for independence from the stronghold of Soviet rule. Comprised of four chapters with a total running time of 4 hours and 46 minutes, it will be presented in four parts with short breaks for reflection, as a chronological overview of Lithuania's birth as an independent nation.
