A film about a lonely old woman who lives waiting for the realisation of a strange presentiment. Her days are similar to each other: breakfast, television, measuring blood pressure. Even Christmas she spends together with a similarly lonely pensioner, her neighbour, in a tiny flat in a Soviet five-storey block of flats. Yet one day the thing she has been afraid of most comes true: life in bed when you cannot turn over on your own. The TV turned on and showing the achievements of Holywood and Lithuanian stars still gives comfort to the old lady. —lfc.lt
