Movie Description
When a family of writers from Moscow – Lyudmila and Andrei Sergeyev – first arrived in Palanga, a Lithuanian coastal resort on the Baltic Sea, they could not have imagined the influence their holidays would have for the history of twentieth-century literature. In Palanga, the Sergeyevs met with the Lithuanian poet Tomas Venclova, whom they later introduced to their friend Yosif Brodsky and who exposed the latter to the works of the Polish author Czesław Miłosz. The three of them, Miłosz later wrote, did more to further friendship among their respective nations than any government.
