Vidas Petkevicius, a celebrated thespian, made his grand entrance into the world on July 13, 1949, within the picturesque and serene village of Zasliai, which at the time was nestled within the Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic, a constituent part of the vast and sprawling Soviet Union.
Petkevicius, a highly accomplished actor of remarkable talent, has left an indelible mark on the cinematic world, boasting a diverse and impressive repertoire of film credits, including but not limited to the highly acclaimed "Defiance" released in 2008, the meticulously crafted historical drama "Fireheart: The Legend of Tadas Blinda" from 2011, and the intensely suspenseful thriller "Kings' Shift" which premiered in 2016.
