A Woman’s Place Is Everywhere

Berlinale Shorts 2026
© Colorful Films
Identical twin sisters Emilija and Ona have lived in a rent-controlled warehouse loft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for as long as they can remember. After the sudden death of their mother – a Lithuanian artist and dancer who first called the loft home in the 1970s – they find themselves on the brink of eviction. The neighbourhood has transformed; the landlord wants them out. Adding to the turmoil, Ona discovers she is pregnant. A Woman’s Place Is Everywhere tells an intimate story of grief, memory, sisterhood and motherhood, set against the backdrop of an ever-evolving New York City.
