According to the actress, working with well-known colleagues was easy and fun.
“It’s always nice to meet colleagues, talented people with whom it’s much easier to empathize with the project and create characters because we already know each other. That helped a lot. The company was very great,” says V. Mockevičiūtė about working with her colleagues.

The actress, working with the URBS TV team for the first time, was satisfied with the whole filming atmosphere. The series was directed by Džiugas Siaurusaitis and Justinas Krisiūnas, whose working styles, according to the actress, are different.
“I would rate the whole team very well. The atmosphere was very good, no quarrels. The directors are very different, which might even be beneficial for the series. The most fun was laughing together and unraveling the script – that’s when we came up with all sorts of things,” the actress recalls with a smile.
Vitalija Mockevičiūtė also enjoys having met Lina and Andrius Talžūnas on the set, for whom working on the series “Not All at Home” became their first such experience. Although she says she didn’t share too many tips, she saw from the outside how both content creators became more confident.
“I rate them very highly. I didn’t lavish them with advice, but they are very cool people. I’m very glad to have met them. They are really very funny, have a great sense of humor, and somehow became very brave throughout the filming process. In the end, we became like a real family,” the actress is happy to say.
Speaking about her character Rozalija, the actress does not hide that this woman may seem very familiar to viewers.

“Rozalija is the kind of mother-in-law that probably all sons-in-law talk about. There are so many jokes about mothers-in-law, and her character in a way reflects men’s attitude towards them,” says V. Mockevičiūtė.
Although the actress’s professional life is currently intense, she managed to take a break this summer. V. Mockevičiūtė says she spent time in the countryside where her mother lives, and even ordinary household chores become a kind of therapy for her.
“I really managed to rest – I went to the countryside, enjoyed the summer and warm weather. And my hobby is renovating houses, painting, changing the interior of my home. That’s how I relax. There’s also no shortage of various tasks in the countryside – mowing the grass, tidying up, other various jobs. They are very relaxing from work. Physically you may get tired, but spiritually you rest,” the actress says.
“Not All at Home” is a new comedic series about the Bukauskas family, whose daily life is turned upside down by living under one roof with an eccentric mother-in-law. The series will be shown from Monday to Thursday at 9 p.m. on LNK.
