Opening Film  

Vilnius is a city of notable historical heritage and unique character currently undergoing considerable changes. Some of the life fragments our camera has recorded are no more. The film, therefore, is a testimony to that which has faded into oblivion, and a glimpse into what is to come.

Once Upon A Vilnius will be screened together with a short film Time Passes Through the City   (Laikas eina per miestą, 1966) by Almantas Grikevičius.
