Techno, Mama

Saulius Baradinskas

Nikita lives in Lithuania but wants to pursue his "techno dream" in bustling Berlin and visit the famous techno club "Berghain". However, his dreams are repressed by his mother who mentally and physically abuses him and knows nothing about his desires to leave. Techno, Mama sheds light on child abuse, a problem that is still common in Lithuania, and the impact it has on children.
