This book is a record of a war over the Soviet Union and Lithuania. Following World War II, Lithuania was transferred to the Soviet Union and completely under its control. And the new government will create a small studio where people's passports will be rewritten from Lithuania to the Soviet Union specifications, where they will simply take portrait photos of the people. Unnecessary backgrounds have been cut, and the white-grey background has a simple portrait as if it was shot in natural light only. Anonymous portrait without recording the name of the subject. However, there is certainly a heavy history behind it. The person responsible for this shoot was Vytautas Stanionis, and this book contains an illustration printed by his son from film. The history of the war, which is revealed by a portrait that is not particularly special. The somewhat complicated feelings of the subject pierce my chest. Published in 2015, 2nd print.
