"Film promotion often face great challenges as a consequence of political and cultural factors, the conditions of the economy and the purposes of film companies. Despite the different circumstances, Lithuanian and European cinema found ways of bridging and combining the commercial and the cultural to suit domestic conditions and its own particular development, in which national specificity fed into cultural identity to find a distinctive market appeal."
