SUMMARY:THE GIRL WITH THE NEEDLE
DESCRIPTION:On December 4\, see a special screening of The Girl with the Needle (Denmark/Poland\, 2024)\, Denmark’s selection for Best International Feature at the 97th Academy Awards! Director Magnus von Horn will be present for a film talk and Q&A after the screening. \nKaroline\, a young seamstress\, finds herself abandoned and pregnant while striving to climb out of poverty in post-WWI Copenhagen. With her husband missing and presumed dead in the war\, she’s unable to pay rent and subsequently evicted. Destitute and soon pregnant to another man\, she falls under the spell of a charismatic candy-store owner\, Dagmar Overbye\, who promises Karoline a home\, job\, and solution to her problems. But the job itself comes at a terrible cost… and soon brings her face to face with a nightmarish reality. Inspired by one of Denmark’s most infamous serial killer cases\, The Girl with the Needle (Pigen med nålen) is at once chilling and timely — offering an unvarnished look at the lengths a woman will go to in order to survive a coldly patriarchal and unforgiving society. \n“Builds to a devastating climax\, taut as piano wire” (Leslie Felperin\, The Hollywood Reporter) \n“Invested with a supremely eerie folkloric edge – a bleak historical chapter made timeless” (Robbie Collin\, The Telegraph) \nThis screening is presented in this year’s Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series. See all films here.  \nPurchase Tickets \nSix-Film Package

SUMMARY:ARMAND
DESCRIPTION:On December 5\, see a special screening of Armand (Norway\, 2024)\, Norway’s official selection for Best International Feature at the 97th Academy Awards! \nElisabeth (Renate Reinsve) arrives at a parent-teacher meeting called on short notice. Her six-year-old son Armand has been accused of something — but that “something” seems unclear. As the principal\, the school nurse\, and another pair of parents become involved\, it’s revealed that a boundary has been crossed between Armand and his best friend. And as they disagree on how to handle it\, the school begins to lose control. A powerful and thought-provoking drama about the complexities of alleged sexual harassment between children\, Armand has been acclaimed as a “vivid\, creepy\, and uncomfortably funny debut” (IndieWire). \n“Resonant and haunting — and should spark plenty of post-screening discussions” (Jonathan Romney\, Screen Daily) \n\n\nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:THE LAST JOURNEY
DESCRIPTION:On December 7\, see The Last Journey (Sweden\, 2024)\, Sweden’s selection for Best International Feature at the 97th Academy Awards! Director Filip Hammar will be present for a film talk and Q&A following the screening. \nWhen Lars Hammar retired after 40 years as a French teacher in the small town of Köping\, he thought that he and his wife Tiina would enter a new phase of travels\, wine\, and experiences they’d never had time for. But as for many others\, retirement didn’t turn out how they imagined — and over the years Lars fell into a depression\, seemingly stuck at home in his Belgian leather armchair\, much to the despair of the energetic Tiina. \nIn a desperate attempt to help his father regain his zest for life\, filmmaker Filip Hammar took his dad on a surprise road trip to France\, retracing the journey they made every summer during Filip’s childhood. With the help of his best friend and fellow filmmaker Fredrik Wikingsson\, Filip aimed to invigorate his dad by reliving some of the best moments of his life. But over the course of their travels and film\, the metamorphosis Filip hoped for becomes another — a recognition of the inevitable\, and the process of aging. A film about life\, death\, friendship and a portrait of a humble man and his enduring legacy\, The Last Journey (Den sista resan) has been Sweden’s highest-grossing documentary and acclaimed as “life-affirming…humorous and heartbreaking” (Variety). \nPurchase Tickets \nSix-Film Package
