Lithuania/France/Netherlands. Dir. Alantė Kavaitė. 2015, 88 mins. In Lithuanian with English subtitles. With Julija Steponaityte, Aistė Diržiūtė, Jūratė Sodytė.Winner of the World Cinema Directing award at the Sundance Film Festival, The Summer of Sangaile is a visually ravishing, sun-kissed coming of age romance. Seventeen-year-old Sangaile is enamored with the idea of becoming a stunt pilot, but is crippled by her fear of heights. When she meets the free-spirited Auste at an air show, the two begin an all-consuming summer love affair that emboldens the timid Sangaile to pursue her dreams. Bathed in the golden hues of summer light, this blissful tale of erotic awakening is a gorgeous evocation of young love.
