Retrospective14 is an international student and independent film festival based in Vilnius, Lithuania, focused on showcasing emerging filmmakers and contemporary moving image practices.

The festival presents a curated program of short films across several categories, including fiction, documentary, experimental film, music video, and student works. We are particularly interested in bold, original voices and projects that explore visual storytelling in innovative ways.
