SUMMARY:FAMILY TIME — SCREENING & DIRECTOR TALK
DESCRIPTION:See Finland’s contender for Best International Feature at the 97th Academy Awards\, Family Time\, in the Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series! The screening will be followed by a film talk and Q&A with director Tia Kouvo.\n\n\nA family comes together for the holidays — and immediately starts falling apart. Just like every year\, middle-aged sisters Susanna and Helena are visiting their parents’ house with their families. And just like every year\, Grandpa Lasse drinks too much; Grandma Ella has to take care of everyone; the kids are fed up\, and the sisters are arguing about the most pointless things. Tia Kouvo’s bitingly humorous\, poignant debut digs into a universal question: Are we destined to remain stuck in the same patterns\, or can we ever change — and at last become a happy family?\n\n\nWinner of the Best Film Award at Riga IFF\, Lübeck Nordic Film Days\, and International Women’s FF Seoul\, as well as three Jussi Awards for Screenplay\, Directing\, and Film of the Year\, Family Time is “a tender film with relatable ideas or emotions at its core” (International Cinephile Society).\n\n\nPurchase Tickets
