SUMMARY:Phoenix & Transnistra — New Nordic Virtual Cinema
DESCRIPTION:FRI—February 19 through THU—February 25\nFilm tickets $13 ($8 ASF Members)\nDouble-feature pass $20 ($12 ASF Members)\n**Members will receive an email from ASF with their discount code for all films.** \nNew Nordic Cinema at Scandinavia House returns in a virtual format! Celebrate contemporary Nordic filmmaking with us from home by catching some of the best new films in weekend sessions of contemporary feature films and documentaries. Films in the second session of the series from the week of February 19 through February 25 are Phoenix /Føniks (Norway\, 2018; dir. Camilla Strøm Henriksen) and Transnistra (Sweden\, 2019; dir. Anna Eborn). \nIn Phoenix /Føniks\, from an early age\, 13-year-old Jill has been the primary caretaker for her younger brother and her troubled mother\, a once-celebrated\, mentally unstable artist. When her estranged father announces a surprise visit for her 14th birthday\, the children receive a spark of much-needed hope\, with the promise of escaping their suffocating household for a day in the brighter world outside. But as her mother’s mental condition takes a turn for the worse\, and with the discovery that her father may be more interested in self-preservation than the welfare of his children\, Jill’s dreams of stability become even more tenuous. Based on an original story written by director Camilla Strøm Henriksen in her feature film debut\, Phoenix blends elements of fantasy and fairy tale with family melodrama\, in this haunting tale of a teen coming of age in the midst of tragedy\, and has been celebrated as “an intelligent family drama refrigerated with horror-movie chills” (The Guardian) that “seamlessly moves the story from social drama\, through fantasy elements\, to grandiose lifestyles” (Cineurope). Directed by Camilla Strøm Henriksen (86 minutes. In Norwegian with English subtitles.) \nAtmospherically shot on 16mm film\, Transnistra is an intimate and vital account of love and friendship in a complex\, contradictory world. Over a period of four seasons\, charismatic 16-year-old Tanya and her group of guy friends navigate their coming-of-age in Transnistria\, a breakaway state created in the wake of Soviet collapse\, on the edge of Moldova near the Ukraine border. In their town of Kamenka\, days of swimming and climbing construction sites are interspersed with their exploration of blossoming young love and the search for identity\, against a cultural backdrop of Russian pop music and the teachings of Fidel Castro. As they approach adulthood\, they must also learn to forge out a future\, and to define themselves within a society that offers little opportunities. “Intimately shot on 16mm film\, Eborn explores the dynamics of the group\, commenting discreetly on youth\, love and life in a place such as this” Cine-Vue). Directed by Anna Eborn (93 minutes. In Russian/Romanian/Ukranian with English subtitles.) \nFestival films will be available to ticket holders all over the U.S. Each session is limited to 250 tickets in an effort to preserve the intimate and communal experience. The sessions will take place over seven days (Friday — Thursday)\, with all films available for viewing on a virtual cinema screening platform throughout this period. To download viewing instructions and an FAQ\, please click here. \n \n \nPURCHASE DOUBLE-FEATURE PASS

SUMMARY:A Silenced Voice: The Life of Journalist Kim Wall – Virtual Book Talk with Ingrid & Joachim Wall
DESCRIPTION:THU—February 25—1 PM ET \nOn February 25\, join us for a book talk with Ingrid and Joachim Wall on the book A Silenced Voice: The Life of Journalist Kim Wall\, their moving memoir of an inexplicable crime\, a family’s loss\, and a legacy preserved\, out now from Amazon Crossing. In conversation with Kelly Ramot\, Executive Director of Thanks to Scandinavia (TTS)\, they will discuss the book about their daughter Kim\, who was an ASF Fellow in 2013-14 as well as a TTS Scholar. \nKim Wall was a thirty-year-old Swedish freelance journalist with a rising career. Then\, in the summer of 2017\, she followed a story that led to an eccentric inventor in Copenhagen. Instead of writing the next day’s headline\, she’d become one. As the bizarre events of Kim’s murder unfolded\, the world watched in shocked disbelief. For Kim’s distraught parents\, Ingrid and Joachim\, it was a devastating personal struggle. In the ensuing months\, day by grueling day\, they had to come to terms with their loss\, process the global media attention\, and endure the investigation and trial. In the end\, they’d make certain that Kim would be seen not only as a victim but as a bright\, funny\, complicated\, ethical\, and selfless young woman—a loved and loving daughter\, sister\, fiancée\, colleague\, and friend. \nKim Wall’s life and promise may have been cut short\, but everything she stood for lives on in this emotional memoir of braving the worst of days\, moving forward\, and never forgetting.\n\n\nThe event will take place via Zoom webinar; please register at the link above. Questions can be shared in the chat or by emailing info@amscan.org. A Silenced Voice: The Life of Journalist Kim Wall is available now in translation by Kathy Saranpa from Amazon Crossing. Click here to learn more and to purchase the book.  \n“A Silenced Voice is a tapestry of past and present\, at once a joyful chronicling of a life well lived and a family’s reckoning with that life being extinguished.” —Marie Claire  \n“In this tender memoir\, the parents of Swedish journalist Kim Wall recount their daughter’s exceptional life and her murder…The authors recall their anguish and pain during the year following their daughter’s death\, but also celebrate her life and share their mission to develop a memorial fund to provide young female reporters with support for their work. This is a passionate portrait of a woman’s meaningful life and her contributions to journalism” —Publishers Weekly \n“If the law represents one form of justice\, one of the promises of journalism is to enact another: doing justice to the people you write about\, justice to the things they care about\, justice to the person behind the story. A Silenced Voice is an exercise in that pained\, loving\, generous justice”—NPR \nRegister
