Zitai
There are personalities who, by their very presence, bring people together to revive and nurture the memory and identity of a nation. Zita Kelmickaitė was one such person.

The Bubble: A Spoonful of Comedy Doesn't Make the Social Commentary Go Down
Ultimately the problem with The Bubble is that it plays everything for laughs to get around the audience’s defenses.
