About This Movie

So, 'Baltic Spirit' is an intriguing mix of comedy, drama, and fantasy that explores some heavy themes. You've got this WWII veteran, Vilen, who is visited by his old Navy buddy Leonid, which sounds kind of typical until you realize Leonid's been dead since 1941. Yeah, it gets weird. The pacing feels a bit off at times but in a way that makes you reflect on the absurdity of war and friendship. The practical effects give it this unique dreamy vibe. Not your run-of-the-mill war story. It’s more about the ghosts of the past and how they haunt the living. The performances, especially from the leads, carry a lot of weight. It’s a curious film that lingers in your mind longer than you'd expect.
