SUMMARY:CRIME SOLVING FOR BEGINNERS — NEW YORK BALTIC FILM FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:The 6th Annual New York Baltic Film Festival (NYBFF) presented by Scandinavia House: The Nordic Center in America returns this November with the best new films from the Baltic region! This year’s lineup includes the International Premiere of Armands Zvirbulis’s Crime Solving for Beginners (Krimināllieta iesācējam\, Latvia/Lithuania\, 2022)\, a gripping Baltic Noir series set within the turbulent landscape of post-Soviet Latvia. *The first two episodes of the seven-episode TV series will screen at Scandinavia House on November 12; all episodes of the series will be available to stream virtually from November 13-19 for both in-person and virtual ticketholders.* \nIn 1995\, Latvia is freshly liberated from Soviet control\, yet still grappling with the remnants of its past. On the same day that the nation destroys a significant Soviet symbol\, a popular nationalist MP’s aide is brutally murdered\, revealing a political conspiracy in his wake. Through three intertwining plotlines\, we meet three protagonists navigating the event and the complexities of this new era — including a young investigator unraveling the web of power dynamics\, a released career criminal\, and the formidable Natalia Nolle\, whose KGB-trained mind has influenced politicians. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:THE POET — NEW YORK BALTIC FILM FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:The 6th Annual New York Baltic Film Festival (NYBFF) presented by Scandinavia House: The Nordic Center in America returns this November with the best new films from the Baltic region! This year’s lineup includes the North American Premiere of The Poet (Poetas\, dir. Giedrius Tamoševičius & Vytautas V. Landsbergis\, Lithuania\, 2022)\, which follows the journey of a disgraced poet in post-war Lithuania who is recruited by the KGB to infiltrate a partisan group. The film will screen in-person at Scandinavia House on November 12 at 4:15 PM and virtually from November 13-19. \nA talented poet (Donatas Želvys)\, who has been expelled from the Lithuanian Soviet Writers’ Union for his anti-Soviet writings\, is recruited by the NKVD (later the KGB) in post-war Lithuania\, and offered a chance to regain his elite status among Soviet writers in exchange for making contact with a group of forest-dwelling partisans. As a newly appointed teacher in a remote village\, he grapples with his tarnished reputation\, as children recite his coerced verses praising the Soviet regime while wary locals test his loyalties. His life takes a profound turn when an old friend leads him to the underground bunker of the Dainava resistance platoon\, where he’s tasked with writing hopeful verses to inspire the oppressed. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT: SMOKE SAUNA SISTERHOOD — NEW YORK BALTIC FILM FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:*THIS SCREENING IS NOW SOLD OUT* \nThe 6th Annual New York Baltic Film Festival (NYBFF) presented by Scandinavia House: The Nordic Center in America returns this November with the best new films from the Baltic region! This year’s lineup includes Anna Hints’s poignant documentary Smoke Sauna Sisterhood\, which has been selected as Estonia’s contender for Best International Feature Film at the 96th Academy Awards. The film will screen in-person only at Scandinavia House on November 12 at 7 PM. \nSmoke Sauna Sisterhood intimately delves into the cultural tradition of Vana-Võromaa’s smoke saunas in South Estonia (which are included in UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list) and how they are unique spaces for healing and community. The film draws inspiration from the smoke saunas’ historical role in childbirth\, where women gather to share secrets\, connecting family and friends to cleanse the body and — more importantly — the soul\, inside a place of peace of contemplation.
