The Home of Basketball (2021)

Overview

The documentary series "Krepšinio namai" is dedicated to the occasion of the centenary of Lithuanian basketball. The first basketball match in Lithuania was played in 1922, between the national team of the temporary capital and the Lithuanian Physical Education Union. This match is considered the beginning of basketball in our country. It would probably be difficult to find a person in the country who does not admire the achievements of our basketball players, and it will never be enough to be happy about what made Lithuania famous all over the world. There is no doubt that basketball has had a huge impact on Lithuania itself, and the documentary series will also reveal the cultural, social and political significance of sporting events.
