SUMMARY:A Writer Named Tove
DESCRIPTION:From April 15 through 24\, see an animated documentary based on the life of acclaimed Danish author Tove Ditlevsen\, A Writer Named Tove /Tove i stykke\, screening virtually from Scandinavia House Online! The film will include a virtual introduction by author and translator Michael Favala. \n“I am a poor human. A miserable human. A completely depraved human. I am sleepless as an owl\, ugly as a witch\, and white wine runs through my veins instead of blood. Furthermore\, I am about to sh** myself to death\,” author Tove Ditlevsen wrote following a break-up with her last husband in 1973. Translated and published in over 20 countries\, and the recipient of several literary prizes including the Golden Laurels in 1956\, Tove lived a sort of double life: while Tove Ditlevsen the human was falling apart\, Tove Ditlevsen the writer would sit in “The Oval Room” to analyze and describe her life. A Writer Named Tove asks the question: did Tove live her life to actually live it\, or to write about it? Directed by Sami Saif; recipient of awards including Best Short Film\, Robert Award 2020 (Denmark\, 2020. 38 min. In Danish with English subtitles) \nScreenings will take place April 15-24\, and will be available for viewing on a virtual cinema screening platform throughout this period. To download viewing instructions and an FAQ\, please click here. \n \nAbout the Speaker\nMichael Favala Goldman is a translator of Danish literature\, a poet\, educator\, and jazz clarinetist. He has translated 17 books of Danish poetry and prose\, including Dependency\, book three of The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen\, which was selected among New York Times’ Ten Best Books of 2021. His third book of poetry\, Small Sovereign was awarded a Best Poetry Book of 2021. He lives in Northampton\, MA\, where he has been running bi-monthly poetry critique groups since 2018.

SUMMARY:Hatching
DESCRIPTION:On April 20\, see an advance screening of the new Finnish thriller Hatching at Scandinavia House! A fascinating portrait of the nature of maternal instinct\, Hatching opens theatrically in New York on April 29 and has been acclaimed as “a wild and weird ride; a cult classic in the making” (San Jose Mercury News) and “a knotty delight” (The Film Stage). A pre-recorded interview with director Hanna Bergholm will follow the screening. \nTwelve-year-old gymnast Tinja (Siiri Solalinna) is desperate to please her image-obsessed mother\, whose popular blog ‘Lovely Everyday Life’ presents their family’s idyllic existence as manicured suburban perfection. One day\, after finding a wounded bird in the woods\, Tinja brings its strange egg home\, nestles it in her bed\, and nurtures it until it hatches. The creature that emerges becomes her closest friend and a living nightmare\, plunging Tinja beneath the impeccable veneer into a twisted reality that her mother refuses to see. As Tinja battles to come to terms with the genuine emotional bond with her grotesque and bloodthirsty new found family\, she must also contend with the fraying connection to her own demanding mother (Finland\, 2022. 87 min. In Finnish with English subtitles.) \nOfficial selection 2022 at the Sundance Film Festival; “part social commentary\, part creature-feature\, Finnish thriller Hatching succeeds in large part because it commits so diligently to its conceit\, as out there as it is” (Third Coast Review) \nThis screening will take place in Victor Borge Hall; attendees are required to follow all Scandinavia House safety protocols\, including wearing masks during the program and observing social distancing rules in signage. Please read our full safety protocols here. \n \nSpecial thanks to IFC Films. \nAbout the Director\nHanna Bergholm is a Finnish film director. She has graduated in 2009 from the University of Art and Design Helsinki with MA in Film Directing. She has directed several internationally awarded short films and also TV drama series. Her latest short horror film Puppet Master has been selected to several international film festivals including Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal 2018\, Fantastic Fest in Austin 2018\, and also to the MoMA Museum of Modern Art New York 2019. Hatching is her first feature film.
