Kristina Buožytė ([krʲɪstʲɪnɐ buəʑiːtʲeː]; born October 9, 1982) is a Lithuanian film director, screenwriter and producer. In her early films she focused on women, explored their inner world and depicted them using fantasy elements. Her science fiction film Vanishing Waves (original title Aurora) is described as a hypnotic, sensual sci-fi experience and sexually explicit sci-fi tale which was rewarded with 22 international awards in Europe and North America. Her latest science fiction film, the bio-fantasy Vesper, done in collaboration with Bruno Samper, has been described as a "melancholic fairytale".
