SUMMARY:DEAF (SORDA) | LUX AUDIENCE AWARDS 2026
DESCRIPTION:See five of the shortlisted finalists for this year’s LUX Audience Awards this season at Scandinavia House! On March 27 we’ll be screening Deaf (Sorda)\, a “beautifully nuanced” debut by Spanish director Eva Libertad. Winner of the International Confederation of Arthouse Cinemas and the coveted Audience Award at the Panorama Section of the Berlinale\, Sorda offers a personal\, vital\, and profoundly moving look into the complexity and rarely explored relationship between the deaf and hearing worlds. \nÁngela\, a deaf woman\, and Héctor\, her hearing partner\, are expecting a child. They are excited about the pregnancy\, although they do not yet know whether the baby will be deaf or hearing. Despite both claiming they can handle whatever comes\, their underlying concerns are evident. After a complicated and emotionally intense labor\, Ángela gives birth to their daughter\, but the pair will have to wait a couple of months to learn if the baby is hearing or not. Navigating this limbo\, Héctor struggles to fully grasp the challenges Ángela is facing\, while she must come to terms with raising a daughter who may not share her experience of the world. This journey forces both of them to question their roles as partners and parents\, as Ángela grapples with her identity in a society that does not fully accept or understand her. \nRegister \nThis event has been organized by the European Parliament in partnership with Scandinavia House. The LUX Audience Award is a joint initiative of the European Parliament and the European Film Academy in collaboration with the European Commission and Europa Cinemas. It is the largest audience award worldwide and the only film prize in the world where citizens together with Members of the European Parliament -with each group weighting 50% -can decide who the winner will be by rating the nominated films  online. The LUX Audience Award fosters dialogue and engagement between politics and the public through the medium of film. The nominated films address European values and raise awareness about some of today’s main social and political issues such as mental health\, poverty\, climate change\, freedom of expression\, gender equality\, LGBTIQ+ rights. \n \n

SUMMARY:WOMAN AT WAR | SILVER ANNIVERSARY RESCREENS
DESCRIPTION:“A thoughtful and dynamic blend of genres”—On April 1\, see Woman at War to continue our Silver Anniversary Rescreens! First screened at Scandinavia House in 2020\, this contemporary environmental fable follows one Icelandic woman’s stubborn efforts to be on the right side of history. \nBehind the scenes of her quiet routine\, the independent 50-year-old Halla leads a double life as a passionate environmental activist. Known to others only by her alias “The Woman of the Mountain\,” Halla secretly wages a one-woman-war on the local aluminium industry. As Halla’s actions grow bolder\, from petty vandalism to outright industrial sabotage\, she succeeds in pausing the negotiations between the Icelandic government and the corporation building a new aluminium smelter in the mountains. \nBut right as she begins planning her biggest and boldest operation yet\, she receives an unexpected letter that changes everything: her application to adopt a child has finally been accepted\, and a little girl is waiting for her in Ukraine. As Halla prepares to abandon her role as saboteur and savior of the Highlands to fulfill her dream of becoming a mother\, she decides to plot one final attack to deal the aluminium industry a crippling blow. \n“Deftly centralizes a profound humanity…” (Variety) \nPurchase tickets \nThis program has been supported by the Monika and Charles Heimbold Fund for Exhibitions and Programs. \n

SUMMARY:LONG GOOD THURSDAY
DESCRIPTION:“Heartwarming… a great accomplishment”—On April 8\, see Long Good Thursday\, Finnish director Mika Kaurismaki‘s fourth installment of the rollicking Grump film series! \nSet in the lush days of a Finnish summer\, Long Good Thursday is a gentle comedy of growing older and of accepting the never-ending possibility of finding joy. Finnish comedy star Heikki Kinnunen plays an aging\, stubborn farmer intent on finishing his life in the home he shared with his late wife. Much to his surprise\, he finds himself smitten with a free-spirited artist\, called Saimi\, who is intent on using him as a model for her photography. \nHis sons are skeptical– even jealous –of their father\, and don’t trust Saimi’s intentions. Who knows\, maybe she’s after his inheritance? Family meetings\, misunderstandings\, swimming in the moonlight\, and sleepless nights show that the power of love can pierce through even the oldest of flannel shirts. \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:SUDDEN OUTBURSTS OF EMOTIONS
DESCRIPTION:“An insightful\, compassionate\, and witty debut”—On April 8\, see Sudden Outbursts of Emotions\, a tender dramedy about the complexities of modern love and mid-life crises! \nTravel agent Jane (Iina Kuustonen) lives a comfortable\, stable yuppie existence in Helsinki with Mikki (Riku Nieminen)\, her theatre-actor boyfriend of 10 years. While their sex life appears active and content on the surface\, Jane is thrown for a loop when Mikki suggests trying an “open relationship” to spice things up. Jane is initially resistant but eventually agrees to attend an exclusive sex-positive weekend retreat\, where the 40-ish couple can explore other romantic pursuits. While Mikki wanders off\, Jane bumps into Valma (Laura Malmivaara)\, a free-spirited woman and veteran of the polyamorous lifestyle\, who encourages Jane to explore hidden facets of her love language. As their bond deepens\, Jane finds herself navigating unfamiliar territory—desire\, jealousy\, and self-discovery—while her once-stable life begins to unravel. What began as an experiment in freedom becomes a profound turning point that challenges everything Jane thought she knew about relationships. \nThis debut feature from Finnish TV writer/director Paula Korva\, could be called a “rom-dramedy” for its skillful depiction of the awkwardness\, excitement\, and befuddlement felt by newbies to the 3D chess game of polyamory. Korva treats her characters with grace and humor\, allowing them room to evolve gradually in this modern spin on the joys and absurdities of gender-fluid dating. \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:DREAMS
DESCRIPTION:“An intensely compelling story about first love”—On April 29th\, see DREAMS\, Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud’s third installment of the widely acclaimed Oslo Trilogy and winner of the Golden Bear at the 2025 Berlin International Film Festival! \n17-year-old Johanne drifts and daydreams like any teenager\, until one day her restlessness morphs into all-consuming passion for her charismatic French teacher\, Johanna. From her vulnerable yet never maudlin inner monologue\, to her frank confessions to her poet grandmother and over-curious mother\, to nuanced scenes of intimacy with Johanna\, Haugerud paints a complex\, endearing\, and intoxicating portrait of youthful infatuation and self-discovery\, laced with the lightest touch of moral inquiry. \n“It sweeps you up\, assuredly and indeed dreamily… The film’s precise juxtapositions of sight and sound produce brilliant flashes of insight…and a cumulatively seductive\, almost musical flow.”  (Justin Chang\, The New Yorker) \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:THE SQUARE | SILVER ANNIVERSARY RESCREENS
DESCRIPTION:On May 6\, see The Square to wrap up our series of Silver Anniversary Rescreens! First screened at Scandinavia House in 2018\, this gripping sociological suspense story by director Ruben Östlund dives into the ethics of moral responsibility\, privilege\, and media sensationalism. \n\nChristian is the respected curator of a contemporary art museum\, a divorced but devoted father of two\, who drives an electric car and supports good causes. His next exhibition\, “The Square\,” is an installation that invites passersby to altruistic deeds\, reminding them of their role as responsible human beings. But sometimes it’s difficult to live up to your own ideas: When Christian’s phone is stolen\, his foolish response drags him into a shameful situation. And when the museum’s PR agency creates an unexpected campaign for “The Square\,” the overblown reaction from the public sends Christian\, as well as the museum\, into an existential crisis. \n\n\nThe Square was shortlisted for the 2017 Oscars as the Best Foreign Language Film nominee. It has received numerous distinctions since its premiere\, including six awards at the European Film Awards\, including Best European Film; and the Palme D’Or Winner at the Cannes Film Festival\, 2017. \n“Ruben Östlund’s sprawling and daringly surreal satire The Square turns a contemporary art museum into a city-state of bizarre\, dysfunctional and Ballardian strangeness… It sets out to make your jaw drop. And it succeeds.” —Peter Bradshaw\, The Guardian \n “[Östlund] creates suspense in a new-fangled way\, turning the space between people into an alarming existential battleground.” —Owen Gleiberman\, Variety \n\nPurchase tickets \nThis program has been supported by the Monika and Charles Heimbold Fund for Exhibitions and Programs. \n

SUMMARY:LOVE
DESCRIPTION:“Utterly enrapturing”—On April 29th\, see LOVE\, Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud’s first installment of the widely acclaimed Oslo Trilogy! \nAn ambitious trilogy from Norwegian novelist/filmmaker Dag Johan Haugerud\, LOVE–SEX–DREAMS are three distinct feature films linked by their themes of nontraditional intimacy\, but need not be seen in any particular order. LOVE focuses on two colleagues at an Oslo hospital — Marianne\, a straight (and straitlaced) doctor\, and Tor\, a gay male nurse. Both single\, they cross paths by chance after hours and confide in each other: Marianne confesses her desire to be more adventurous and open in her encounters with men; Tor shares his fatigue with Grindr hook-ups. Their conversations form the heart of exploration of desire and emotional fulfillment. \n“Dag Johan Haugerud’s gently humanistic drama is one of those films that feels akin to a prism\, refracting its theme into the array of colors it contains…it’s so beautiful that you want to just keep dwelling in its world.” (Alissa Wilkinson\, The New York Times) \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:SEX
DESCRIPTION:“A playful\, insightful character study”—On May 20th\, see SEX\, Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud’s second installment of the widely acclaimed Oslo Trilogy! \nAn ambitious trilogy from Norwegian novelist/filmmaker Dag Johan Haugerud\, LOVE–SEX–DREAMS are three distinct feature films linked by their themes of nontraditional intimacy\, but need not be seen in any particular order. In SEX\, two male-identified colleagues who are happily married to women share candidly their secrets: one reveals his unprecedented recent sexual encounter with another man; the other is haunted by a recurring dream featuring David Bowie and his own gender fluidity. Both men — shockingly yet with great sensitivity — seek transparency and understanding with their wives. SEX thus envisions honest\, warm-hearted possibilities for gender expansiveness within heterosexual monogamy\, while also enacting the intricacy of an authentic and generous love. \n“Superbly acted. The film is laced with dry humor but also poignancy and notes of melancholy. [Turns] the male character study on its head with a gentle subversiveness.” (David Rooney\, The Hollywood Reporter) \nPurchase Tickets \n
