SUMMARY:THE WOODCUTTER STORY
DESCRIPTION:This fall at Scandinavia House\, experience Nordic comedy at its darkest with “Svart Humor”! “If there’s a dead body in Denmark\, someone is going to make a joke about it\,” director Anders Jensen once said; Nordic comedies are as known for their deadpan\, dry wit as for their occasionally noir subject matter\, celebrating the “svart/sort” (dark) side of life’s hilarities. \nOn October 25\, see the Finnish dark comedy The Woodcutter Story (Metsurin Tarina\, dir. Mikko Myllylahti\, Finland/Netherlands/Denmark/Germany\, 2022)! Pepe (Jarkko Lahti ) is a woodcutter in an idyllic small town in northern Finland\, who deeply believes in a better tomorrow. Over the span of a couple of days\, however\, a series of events gradually destroys the quiet and happy life he once had. \nBut as chaos\, and strife\, and surreal adventures are repeatedly thrown at him\, Pepe remains smiling\, optimistic\, and determined to the look on the bright side of life. As if he knew a secret to existence that no one else did… \nAnchored by a riotously deadpan lead performance and a wild cast of characters (including a child barber\, a singing psychic\, and a talking fish)\, this absurd and hilarious fable from The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki writer Mikko Myllylahti is an ode to optimism despite losing everything. \nSelected for L’Atelier Cannes in 2019 and labs such as Next Step in 2018\, Torino FeatureLab in 2018\, Toronto Filmmaker Lab in 2018\, Jerusalem Film Lab in 2016 and Berlinale Script Station in 2015. \n“A Kaurismäkian variant on Twin Peaks\, with a soupçon of Fargo“—Screen International \n“The Woodcutter Story might be the most terrifying movie of the year”—The Playlist \nRegister

SUMMARY:SWEDISH BEGINNER 2 — HYBRID LANGUAGE CLASSES
DESCRIPTION:Learn the Nordic languages in classes offered this winter at Scandinavia House! This course is for those who are still new to Swedish but perhaps have studied some on their own using apps or through other means. Students will have a basic knowledge of sentence structure\, greetings\, know their numbers\, how to tell time and already possess a small but basic vocabulary. This semester the students will move beyond themselves and explore how to buy and order things\, talk about what they do in their spare time\, and read about an historical figure. Grammatically they will expand into other tenses and learn how adjectives and nouns inform each other. Various facets of Swedish life may be discussed during the course. This class will take place as hybrid learning on Mondays with classes offered at Scandinavia House and online via Zoom\, and online-only on Wednesdays. \nEnroll
