SUMMARY:THE GROUND BENEATH OUR FEET + HALT UM MEG + ALWAYS MOVING | WEST NORDIC FILM DAYS
DESCRIPTION:Join us this fall for the festival West Nordic Film Days\, a celebration of cinema from Greenland\, Iceland and the Faroe Islands! Screenings take place in Victor Borge Hall from October 9-11 and will include a range of acclaimed recent feature films\, documentaries and shorts. 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. \nOur closing day on Saturday\, October 11 will include screenings of the Icelandic feature film The Ground Beneath Our Feet (Jörðin undir fótum okkar\, dir. Yrsa Roca Fannberg\, 2025)\, followed by the Faroese short film Halt um Meg (Hold Me\, 2025\, dir. Maria Winther Olsen) and the Greenlandic short film Always Moving (dir. Alberte Parnuuna\, 2026). \nIn the Icelandic documentary feature The Ground Beneath Our Feet\, a group of elderly people living together in a grand old building in Reykjavík reflect on their centuries of life\, interwoven through the meditative practice of their daily routines. The Geytin award-winning short film Halt um Meg explores the profound themes of grief\, intimacy\, and human connection within the backdrop of a nighttime conversation between two strangers in a bar. Always Moving is an abstract\, animated reflection on our urge to constantly stay in motion. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:HOME SWEET HOME | NEW NORDIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:On October 14\, see the warmly rendered drama Home Sweet Home! Single mother Sofie starts a new career as a caretaker for the elderly\, only to be humbled by the toll it takes on her physical and mental state\, in this authentic and rewarding glimpse at the uncelebrated world of healthcare workers from director Frelle Petersen. \nWe meet Sofie (Jette Søndergaard) as she begins her new elder-care job in a small Danish city. Each day\, she travels from flat to flat\, helping with bathing\, cooking\, cleaning bed sores\, changing linens\, and—most importantly—just chatting with lonely patients who feel abandoned. The recently divorced Sofie also struggles to raise her taciturn young daughter\, Clara. Sofie’s even temperament is well-suited for her demanding tasks\, but she is also subject to intense pressures of staff shortages and rudeness. When one of her client’s relatives lambastes her for alleged ineptitude\, Sofie begins questioning her ability to maintain intimate connections with patients\, co-workers\, and even her own family. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:TELL EVERYONE | NEW NORDIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:“A compelling and ultimately compassionate story”—On October 21\, see the striking period drama Tell Everyone! Director Alli Haapasalo and lead actress Marketta Tikkanen will be present for a Q&A following the screening. \nOn a remote island where troublesome women are sent to be forgotten\, an emotionally charged struggle for liberation unfolds in a dazzlingly beautiful and deeply moving historical drama. \n\nFollowing her acclaimed Girl Picture (2022)\, director Alli Haapasalo takes the female body’s built-in violence and imbues that bottled up fury into 19th-century Finland on a little island called Seili. The year is 1898\, and Amanda (Marketta Tikkanen) arrives at the institution on the island of Seili in the Finnish archipelago. She has been committed after living a wandering\, decadent life\, marked by episodes of “madness” once a month caused by severe menstrual pain. Amanda considers her stay on the island strictly temporary\, but as she begins to form bonds with the other women\, doubt takes root. Marketta Tikkanen shines in the lead role\, supported by Alma Pöysti\, Krista Kosonen and Aamu Milonoff\, who together create a richly layered gallery of female fates in a genuinely affecting drama. \n\nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:NO COMMENT | NEW NORDIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:“A sharp and entertaining satire with a biting edge” —On October 28\, see the political satire No Comment! In his newest film\, Norwegian director Petter Næss (Elling) takes aim at a political establishment willing to sacrifice both morality and truth to save its own skin and hold on to power. \nAs the election approaches\, sitting Prime Minister Alma Solvik (Laila Goody) hopes for renewed trust from voters when it is revealed that her husband Sondre (Anders Baasmo) has made a series of lucrative stock deals during her time in office. With accusations of insider trading and conflicts of interest\, Sondre becomes the perfect scapegoat in a high-stakes political circus. To contain the brewing media storm\, Alma and her embattled spin doctor Karianne Moen (Pia Tjelta) orchestrate a bold strategy to protect her and her party’s reputation — whatever it takes. \nDirector Petter Næss and screenwriter Ståle Stein Berg draw inspiration from real-life political scandals — not least the stock trading scandal involving Norway’s former Prime Minister Erna Solberg and her husband\, Sindre Finnes. \nPurchase Tickets
