About

This rare collection of Lithuanian film posters forms part of photographer Marta Ovod's personal archive of posters spanning a period between 1967-2001. Each poster is not merely a revelatory aesthetic representation of Lithuanian cinema but an effective message-carrier from another epoch, an indispensable tool for cracking open the back-story of Soviet and Independent Lithuania. The posters offer forensic proof of this transitional period, its shifting ideological and socio-political system and the films they promoted.
