Biography

Romas Zabarauskas established himself as a provocative Baltic storyteller with a drama-driven, politically engaging, and visually lush body of work. He is a Tallinn Black Nights regular from his debut We Will Riot (2013) to his latest films The Writer (2023) and The Activist (2025), which, together with The Lawyer (2020), form a thematic trilogy. His debut short Porno Melodrama (2011) premiered in Berlinale Panorama and told one of the first queer stories in Lithuanian cinema. Zabarauskas holds a BA in Film (2012) from Saint-Denis University (Paris), including an exchange year at Hunter College (New York), and an MA in Communication (2016) from KSU (Vilnius). He is currently pursuing a PhD in Film at the National Film School of the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre.
