SUMMARY:GODLAND: SCREENING & FILM TALK WITH HLYNUR PÁLMASON
DESCRIPTION:“Absolutely breathtaking…both terrifying and beautiful” (Austin Chronicle) — join us for a special screening of the stunning psychological epic Godland (Iceland\, 2022) with director Hlynur Pálmason on November 15! Returning this November and December\, the Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series features screenings of films chosen by the Nordic & Baltic countries to compete for the Oscar nomination for the Best International Feature Film\, including this year’s candidate for Iceland. A film talk and Q&A with director Hlynur Pálmason will follow the screening. \n\nReligion and brute animal nature battle one another amid the beautifully forbidding landscapes of remote late 19th-century Iceland in this drama following Danish priest Lucas (Elliott Crosset Hove)\, who makes the perilous trek to the nation’s southeastern coast with the intention of establishing a church. There\, the arrogant man of God finds his resolve tested as he confronts the harsh terrain\, temptations of the flesh\, and the reality of being an intruder in an unforgiving land. What unfolds is a transfixing journey into the heart of colonial darkness attuned to both the majesty and terrifying power of the natural world.\nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT: ROSE — SCREENING & DIRECTOR TALK
DESCRIPTION:*This event is now SOLD OUT.* \nOn November 17\, see the moving new Danish drama Rose (France/Denmark\, 2023)\, with a film talk and Q&A by director Niels Arden Oplev! \nRose is the story of two sisters\, Inger (Sofia Gråbøl) and Ellen (Lena Maria Christensen)\, and how their relationship is challenged on a highly anticipated coach trip to Paris. In the late summer of 1997\, Ellen and her husband Vagn (Andres W Berthelsen) arrive at an institution in Northern Denmark to pick up Ellen’s mentally ill sister Inger for a trip to France. When Inger announces her struggles with schizophrenia to their coach group\, the sisters are faced with pity from some and discrimination from others; among those is the teacher Skelbæk (Søren Malling)\, who declares himself the champion of normality\, and his young son Christian (Luca Reichardt Ben Coker)\, whose child’s curiosity and innocence leads him to develop a friendship with Inger that only grows fonder the closer they get to Paris. \nOn arrival\, however\, it soon becomes clear that Inger holds many secrets\, including an ability to speak French fluently and rescue her group on several occasions\, but also a hidden agenda concerning a figure from her past — Jacques (Jean-Pierre Lorit)\, her first love who left her when she was young. In the city where it all began\, Inger separates from the guided tour and ultimately involves the entire group in her hunt for answers\, leading to self-discovery\, conflict\, and reconciliation. Hailed as “refreshing…with fully fleshed out characters all of whom have their own journeys to undertake” (Eye for Film)\, Rose is a film about being able to love and care for each other in spite of our differences\, and not judging a book by its cover.
