Shot and exclusively screened in stereoscopic 3D, Twittering Soul is a Lithuanian period drama, set in the 1800s, directed by Lithuanian artist Deimantas Narkevičius. The film world premiered last year at the 2023 Festival International de Cinéma de Marseille and has since been screened at other film festivals, including the 2024 New Horizons Film Festival and the 2024 International Film Festival Rotterdam.

Dekanalgog will release Twittering Soul in US theaters this Fall beginning on October 25, 2024.

The synopsis of the film reads: Twittering Soul is set in the late 1800s, yet is haunted by the specter of the 20th century. It’s the dawn of automobiles, human aviation, psychoanalysis and of course, cinema. Indifferent to, but not ignorant of, these historical upheavals, a small wooded village in southern Lithuania prepares for doomsday. Two women discuss afterlife, an itinerant musician witnesses strange happenings on his journey, tales are told of stones that grow in size and float in the air, a band of faeries weave busily away in a cottage, a feudal lord pores over an optical contraption as his daughter is warned about the witches that haunt a nearby tree.

The nature of these events remains mysterious, the connection between them tenuous. The film weaves them into a sumptuous, mystical rural tapestry embodying a distinct, pre-modern conception of life and beyond. Narkevičius draws his material liberally from Lithuanian folk song, superstitions, sayings, prayers, and games, concocting a work that hovers between reality, fantasy, dreams, and visions.

A deeply unsettling, hypnotic, and uncanny work of historical imagination, Twittering Soul was conceived for – and only for – 3D projection, a medium of which it makes truly singular and innovative use.
