From that show: "Most Lithuanians are in favor of a new nuclear power plant" - WTF??
The vast majority (64.77%) voted against it in a referendum - that's even despite of millions of EU funding having been spent on pro-new-nuclear-plant publicity. The fact that our government is acting as if nothing's happened and is planning to go through with that project in spite of the population being against it just shows how pathetic it is. I don't think they'll manage to push that project through in the end.
Other than that, the documentary seems alright.
Maybe a bit on the optimistic side though, for example: the hardships of the fishing industry and the farming sector weren't stressed enough - both are dwindling because EU is subsidizing the planting of forest in arable land and the cutting down of old ships and is giving out less fishing quotas as a token. Basically, it's paying farmers and fishers to make them stop producing which is hardly good for the country IMO.
