The Collectress Travels Arround the World

Just in one year The Collectress (directed by Kristina Buozyte) visited Karlovy Vary (Czech Republic), Kinoshock (Russia), Arsenals (Latvia), Cinesfest Miskolc (Hungary), Pusan IFF (Korea), San Paulo IFF (Brazil), Valencia IFF (Spain), Lubeck, Mannheim-Heidelberg, Cottbus (Germany), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Cairo IFF, (Egypt).

The film returns back to Europe. This time it comes to the DAYS OF EUROPEAN FILM, Czech Republic. What makes it unique about the film is that it raises a fundamental issue for nowadays society. In the abundance of media, people can not escape virtual reality, which bombards them with fake emotions on screen. We generate cyber relationships, and they sometimes become more important than our family members and friends living close to us.

Prof. Stephen Deutsch

: "Titas is an imaginative and skilled composer who possesses a wide range of musical styles combined with a real understanding of how music and images come together. His energy and talent are put to good use in any project he undertakes".

Quote from the Peer Raben Award (2009) jury's statement: "The music is an organical part of this excellently done short film. Petrikis masters the connection between picture and sound in a highly sensitive way. The orchestral score produces a strong atmosphere and draws the audience into the film, being an essential part of the narrative. We'd love to hear this composer's music performed by a real orchestra."

Lithuanian composer Giedrius Kuprevicius writes in his website: "Finally the last Titas work "idenTITy" reached me. Six compositions were published at Star Studio in Rome. I am happy that with each new composition Titas makes a progress and surprises me with new musical ideas". More information at G.Kuprevicius website.

Theatre Director Jonas Jurasas about the music for his play Purge: "It was a sincere teamwork that immersed us into hard work to make this performance. We are pleased the result reached the hearts and minds of the audience".
