Giedre Dukauskaite


Level 16 (2018)


In a highly regimented boarding school, a pair of students discover that things are not as they seem.

Very good dystopian tale, a bit reminiscent of The Handmaid's Tale in its bleak vision of female oppression, successfully conveys an atmosphere of mystery, suppression and dread.

Chappaquiddick (2017)


Depicting Ted Kennedy's involvement in the fatal 1969 car accident that claims the life of a young campaign strategist, Mary Jo Kopechne.

This movie's slickly made with excellent performances, but such a sober, unexcited depiction of the events, it doesn't reveal more than the facts already known.
