Of course, he was also famous for his character from “Familiares”, with whom he entertained the series.

I can’t … Looks like a weekly funeral. It becomes uncomfortable. You only recover after one death, look, another. And so close: Gražina Balandytė, Gediminas Girdvainis … Terror is something.

God, it’s even hard to talk about it. It does, and what happened to what it took to survive the loss of a child? I know the designer well, the mother of that dead guy, so I had a double whammy. Don’t give, God, such events. It is infinitely terrifying. I’m even afraid to think about it, to let in thoughts. A nightmare. It was a shame and Peter was, of course. This just shows once again how not to take risks ”, said the interlocutor.
