SUMMARY:THE ACTIVIST
DESCRIPTION:“A multifaceted and inventive crime thriller” – On March 3\, see The Activist\, the electrifying queer noir that’s already generated buzz across Baltic cinemas! Director Romas Zabarauskas will be present for a film talk and Q&A following the screening. \nA masked intruder murders Deividas\, Lithuania’s most influential human rights activist\, just as the urban center Kaunas prepares for its first LGBTQ+ march. Only hours earlier\, Deividas had clashed with his secret lover\, Andrius\, who is too afraid to come out or publicly support the fragile community. Consumed by grief and guilt\, Andrius launches his own covert investigation\, soon discovering that Deividas was surrounded by two-faced enemies. As the police stall and threaten to revoke the Pride march permit\, the city seethes with hatred and fear. A ruthless neo-Nazi gang poses as the self-proclaimed defenders of civilization. With nothing left to lose\, Andrius dares to play with fire: assuming a new identity as an idealist working at a printing house\, he infiltrates the gang to uncover a disturbing truth. \nTickets

SUMMARY:GIRL PICTURE | SILVER ANNIVERSARY RESCREENS
DESCRIPTION:On February 4\, see Girl Picture to continue our Silver Anniversary Rescreens! First screened at Scandinavia House in 2022 as a part of our Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders\, this tender coming-of-age film follows three young women as they try to defy the persistent winter darkness in Finland while navigating their adolescent dreams\, reality\, friendships\, and relationships. \nIn this dramedy from the director of Force of Habit and Love & Fury\, best friends Mimmi and Rönkkö have each other’s backs\, always\, aspiring for adventurous lives filled with experiences and passion. Emma\, on the contrary\, has given her whole life to figure skating — nothing gets between her and success. But when the girls meet\, life opens new paths that send them rocketing in new directions. While Mimmi and Emma find themselves experiencing the earth-moving effects of true love\, Rönkkö is on a quest to find pleasure. As new bonds form and others are tested over the course of three successive Fridays\, the girls must navigate the complex paths of teenage desire. \n“Haapasalo clearly understands that\, when you’re young\, desire can feel confusing or gratifying\, thrilling or overwhelming…an affecting achievement that never feels less than loving”—The Film Stage \nPurchase tickets \nThis program has been supported by the Monika and Charles Heimbold Fund for Exhibitions and Programs. \n

SUMMARY:RED CODE BLUE | SCREENING + FILM TALK
DESCRIPTION:“A gripping Latvian crime epic” – on March 5\, see Red Code Blue\, director Oskars Rupenheits’s masterfully produced crime drama that accurately rewinds time to the Baltic region’s unsafe\, frenzied\, and uncertain 1990s. Under Rupenheits’ raw direction\, intense chases\, interrogations\, and shootouts unfold among rival gangs\, reckless punks\, corrupt operatives\, and ruthless policemen in lawless\, chaotic Riga. A Q&A with producer Sintija Andersone\, cinematographer Juris Pīlēns\, and location manager Amanda Rēvalde will follow the screening. \nA young\, idealistic investigator\, Romāns Skulte (Raitis Stūrmanis)\, struggles to find his footing in the cruel\, callous labyrinth of newly independent Latvia from his very first shift. Drug traffickers and violent gangsters control the bleak streets under the invisible protection of high-ranking officers. Rookie cadets quickly learn they can trust no one\, not even their closest friends\, as traitors and informants lurk everywhere. Cunning Georgian smugglers are deeply embedded in a fearful society\, while the aggressive Armenian mafia– headed by the mysterious crime lord known only as “The Armenian” (Robers Kosojans) –enters the scene without hesitation. Romāns must navigate this harsh world while trying to salvage his moral compass\, coming to realize virtues like honesty and loyalty are punished in cold blood. \nA hit at the 29th Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival\, Red Code Blue is a slow-burning police thriller packed with suspenseful heists\, double-crosses\, blackmail\, bribery\, and relentless pursuit. \nPurchase Tickets \n
