Overview

A homeless wanderer, Rimas Šileikis, visits Gabrielė, the lady of the manor where he once worked as a gardener many years ago. Over lunch, he tells her about his estranged brother, Stasys, and finally resolves to pay him a visit. But upon returning to his native village, Rimas finds something very different from what he expected. Rich in elements of magical realism, Tabasco reflects the director’s exploration of intergenerational collective trauma and the crisis of provincial life in post-Soviet Lithuania.
