In his mid-thirties, Danielius has a newborn baby and a stable life in Norway. When his father passes away, he returns to his Lithuanian hometown to sell the apartment where he grew up. Arriving at the end of summer, the seaside resort that was once familiar to him seems both unchanged and unfamiliar.

« The theme of migration is so thoroughly mined in arthouse cinema, it is unusual to find a picture that has something fresh to say. But The Visitor, the impressive debut film from Lithuanian cinematographer and director Vytautas Katkus, finds both a new angle and an original means of exploring it. » (ScreenDaily.)

« A poignant beach-town tale carved through the connections between individuals, spaces and encounters » (Cineuropa)
