SUMMARY:FALLEN LEAVES — SCREENING & FILM TALK
DESCRIPTION:“Aki Kaurismäki’s almost feelgood romance is a droll delight” (The Guardian) — on January 12\, join us for a special screening of Fallen Leaves (Kuolleet lehdet\, Finland\, 2023)\, Aki Kaurismäki’s triumphant new film about love\, chance and fate! Returning this fall and winter\, the Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series features films chosen for Oscar nominations at the 96th Annual Academy Awards\, including Fallen Leaves\, a contender for Best International Feature Film. This screening will be followed by an unmissable Q&A with lead actors Alma Pöysti and Jussi Vatanen! \nAward-winning filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki (Le Havre\, The Other Side of Hope) makes a masterful return with Fallen Leaves\, a timeless\, hopeful and satisfying love story that won the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. Set in present-day Helsinki\, the film tells the story of Ansa (Alma Pöysti) and Holappa (Jussi Vatanen)\, two lonely souls whose chance meeting at a local karaoke bar is beset by numerous hurdles. From lost phone numbers to mistaken addresses\, alcoholism and a charming stray dog\, the pair’s path to happiness is as bittersweet as it is ultimately delightful. \nShot through with Kaurismäki’s typically playful\, idiosyncratic style and deadpan sense of humor\, this tender romantic tragicomedy is both a loving tribute to the filmmaker’s beloved contemporaries and a timely reminder of the potency of movie-going from one of cinema’s living legends. \nPurchase Tickets
