The filmography of this actress is extensive. It is widely known not only to the Russian cinema audience, Ingeborga's fame is worldwide, because she is actively filmed both in Russia and abroad.
Actress childhood
The birthplace of Dapkunaite is Vilnius. In January 1963, a daughter was born to a family of Lithuanian intellectuals - a meteorologist and diplomat. Since childhood, the girl was instilled with a love of art. Due to working circumstances, Inga's parents soon left the Republic of Lithuania and settled in Moscow. Inga spent their holidays with them, and they, if possible, tried to travel to their native lands. The connection of young Inga with her parents was strong.
The first pages of the biography of Dapkunaite are practically inextricable with Vilnius. It spent her childhood surrounded by a nanny, and grandparents, and close relatives in the person of an aunt and uncle.
Actress career background
According to Inga, her creative debut took place in four years. The girl’s grandmother was a theater worker and organized concerts of opera singers. Inga often was with her in the theater and knew about the backstage life firsthand. A fatal role in the career of the future actress was played by one case. She had to go on stage in the production of "Cio-Cio-san" in the role of a little boy - the son of the heroine of the Italian star - Virginia Ziana. At first, Virginia took this idea hostilely, but the young actress's debut inspired her so much that she gave all the flowers she presented to Ingeborg. Such cases were periodically repeated. Inga regularly came into contact with the stage and world famous celebrities.
In addition to acting experience, Dapkunaite learned the basics of two sports - basketball and figure skating.
University years
When it came time to decide on a profession, Inga seriously thought about how to connect her life with ballet and opera. The theater dramas in which she performed since childhood, the actress perceived nothing more than a hobby, so she decided to go to the conservatory. But on the course of Jonas Vaitkus, she met her first husband Arunas Sakalaus, and meeting her eminent mentor turned her whole life upside down. He persuaded Inga to play serious dramatic roles. Then Amiunts Nyakronius lured her, and in 1984 Dapkunaite made her film debut.
Film career
The film "My Little Wife" was a definite success. The actress became recognizable, but not so popular, since the films in which she starred did not receive much public recognition. The first kinoslava came after "Intergirl", which was released in the late 80s. Later, at one of the performances, Inga met John Malkovich, and he invited her to London to play in the play "Speech Mistakes."
