The Summer of Sangaile by the Lithuanian director Alante Kavaite to be screened in the main programme of Berlinale Panorama. The film will have its European premiere in Berlin while its World Premiere is a couple of days ahead in Sundance, the Lithuanian Film Centre said, cites LETA/ELTA.

The film tells the story of the 17-year-old Sangaile who is fascinated by stunt planes. She meets a girl her age at the summer aeronautical show near her parents' lakeside villa. Sangaile allows Auste to discover her most intimate secret and in the process finds in her teenage love, the only person who truly encourages her to fly.

The film features Julija Steponaityte (as Sangaile) and Aiste Dirziute (as Auste). 23-years-old Dirziute is also among the ten talented newcomer actors selected for the European Shooting Stars 2015.

Last month it was announced that the film was selected for the Sundance Film Festival's World Cinema Dramatic Competition where it will have its world premiere and will be screened as the day one film.

The film is produced by Fralita Films (Lithuania) and Les Films d'Antoine (France) and co-produced by Viking Film (Netherlands).
