The film studio Kopa was founded in 1991. The main goals of the studio are to create and produce cinema and video films, to promote Lithuanian culture, society, its social development and historical heritage at home and abroad. The studio Kopa has produced over fifty documentary films and television programmes, which have been shown and awarded in USA, Great Britain, Germany, France and Russia.
