SUMMARY:SOLITUDE + SHORTS | WEST NORDIC FILM DAYS
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 14 & 15 for the festival West Nordic Film Days\, a celebration of cinema from Greenland\, Iceland and the Faroe Islands! Presented in partnership with Nordic National Museum in Seattle\, in-person screenings will take place at Scandinavia House in New York and Majestic Bay Theatres in Seattle on Friday and Saturday. Curated by Birgir Thor Møller\, the selection of films at West Nordic Film Days reflects the current development and tendencies in West Nordic cinema as well as the diversity\, combining films by prolific\, prizewinning directors and upcoming filmmakers\, who all live in and tell their stories from very different parts of the region. \nOpening Night on Friday\, March 14 will include screenings of the Icelandic feature film Solitude (Tilverur\, dir. Ninna Rún Pálmadóttir\, 2022)\, followed by the Faroese short film Omman (Grandmother\, 2019\, dir. Julia í Kálvalí) and and the Greenlandic short film Entropy (dir. Inuk Jørgensen\, 2024). \nIn Solitude a farmer is forced to relocate from the countryside to the capital\, where he develops a transformative friendship with a 10-year-old paper boy\, in a poetic film celebrating the comfort and care of unexpected connections. In Omman\, two brothers head up to the mountains to find their alcoholic grandmother; ahead of them lies a disturbing journey home. And in the scenic short film Entropy\, the vast Greenlandic film cap becomes a symbol of the director’s people\, who have always lived in close and sacred connection with the nature around them.

SUMMARY:WEST NORDIC FILM DAYS
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 14 & 15 for the festival West Nordic Film Days\, a celebration of cinema from Greenland\, Iceland and the Faroe Islands! Presented in partnership with Nordic National Museum in Seattle\, in-person screenings will take place at Scandinavia House in New York and Majestic Bay Theatres in Seattle on Friday and Saturday. \nThe West Nordic countries have attracted foreign filmmakers since the dawn of cinema. In the late 1970s\, however\, Iceland began to develop a national film industry\, gaining domestic and international attention and recognition. The history of Greenlandic\, Faroese and Sami film production is of a bit later date\, yet in recent years an increasing number of their films have attracted attention\, both at home and abroad. Curated by Birgir Thor Møller\, the selection of films at West Nordic Film Days will not only reflect the current development and tendencies in West Nordic cinema\, but also the diversity\, combining films by prolific\, prizewinning directors and upcoming filmmakers\, who all live in and tell their stories from very different parts of the region. \nA full schedule and tickets will be announced shortly; check back for details. \nPhoto: Northern lights in Klaksvik\, Faroe Islands; Photo by Alessio Mesiano / @Alessio Mesiano
