Check and Worm (2026)
Directed by Renāte Saulīte
Fantasy · 15m
Having become ruler, the Queen, generous yet naive, distributes the treasures of the Kingdom to anyone who asks. The experienced councillor however, has objections. A test of dance is held to prove the true intentions of the petitioners. Whoever dances with the greatest ease and grace will be seen as worthy, as this person’s movements are not hindered by the weight of stolen burdens and conscience. During the test, the Queen’s view of the world is irreversibly twisted.
