GODLAND

January 8—6:30 pm9:00 pm

“Absolutely breathtaking…both terrifying and beautiful” (Austin Chronicle) — join us for a special screening of the stunning psychological epic Godland (Iceland, 2022), now shortlisted for the Oscar Award for Best International Feature Film! Continuing through January, the Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series features screenings of films chosen by the Nordic & Baltic countries to compete at the 96th Annual Academy Awards.

Religion and brute animal nature battle one another amid the beautifully forbidding landscapes of remote late 19th-century Iceland in this drama following Danish priest Lucas (Elliott Crosset Hove), who makes the perilous trek to the nation’s southeastern coast with the intention of establishing a church. There, the arrogant man of God finds his resolve tested as he confronts the harsh terrain, temptations of the flesh, and the reality of being an intruder in an unforgiving land. What unfolds is a transfixing journey into the heart of colonial darkness attuned to both the majesty and terrifying power of the natural world.
