Originally started as a mere wandering around an exotic location, the project had a turning point when Francesco Lusa portrayed a gentleman cleaning an empty parking lot between a lake and a vast industrial area.

Francesco Lusa: "That ecstatic moment allowed me to realize the importance of what was happening and pushed me to start a historical and aesthetic research that lasted about six years. During the production of this work I was interested in several topics such as the industrialization process during the Soviet occupation that led to the urban and social development of the territory itself, the economic crisis after the nation’s independence, the crime that marked the history of the area in the 90s and the wounds left by the Soviet regime to the nation and its people."

“The Tree Which Has Been Struck 3 Times by Lightning” is a story about Lithuania narrated by a non-lithuanian photographer.
