Documentary about Rosita Čivilytė "Her name is DIVA" - already on LRT EPIKA platform! The creative team of this documentary is made up of professionals from the creative house Elitaz, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary: chief producer Gediminas Jaunius, director Rokas Jaunius, scriptwriter Elvyra Kučinskaitė, who was accompanied in the creative process by executive producer Ilmena Časnovičė and editor Greta Šivickytė. Some of these professionals also worked on the publication of Rosita Čivilytė's biography "Rosita. Life as Sudden Death and Slow Resurrection".
In the film, her friends, stage partners, creative collaborators, Rosita's students Česlovas Gabalis, Žilvinas Žvagulis, Gintaras Rinkevičius, Vytenis Pauliukaitis, Donatas Montvydas, Monika Marija Paulauskaitė and others talk about their acquaintance with Rosita, their joint creative works and unexpected turns in their careers in a very frank and personal way.
One of the most emotional stories comes from Žilvinas Žvagulis, who recalls the early days of his career in a very candid interview: "We matched our plus and minus, it went very well, just because I was demanding of myself to the point of madness, and she was demanding of herself too. We happened to want the same thing." And soon afterwards, he says: "I on both, Blyn, I hated her and on both I took a lot!..."
This quote becomes one of the most striking moments in the film, revealing Rosita's professionalism, her extraordinary creative character, her quest for perfection and her strong emotional connection with her scene partners.
The documentary invites you to re-evaluate Rosita Čivilytė's significance in the history of Lithuanian music and to experience what life sounds like when it is lived boldly, sensitively and truly. It weaves archival footage, memories of close people and literary interludes from the book into a multi-layered narrative about Rosita's work and life. The film creates a particularly sensitive atmosphere with a specially filmed chamber concert at Rosita's homestead in Žibėčiai, where Rosita's five new songs, presented for the first time in the context of a documentary, are performed in the open air.
"I think it worked. I feel so fulfilled, so beautiful, and the singing is so good. I have a huge feeling of fullness. I heard phrases that I don't even remember saying myself. I want to have this film in my archive", Rosita Čivilytė shared with emotion, watching the film for the first time with the audience, friends and associates.
