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

SUMMARY:NORDIC BOOK CLUB ONLINE | BEASTS OF THE SEA
DESCRIPTION:Read and discuss literature with our Nordic Book Club Online! Nordic Book Club meets monthly via Zoom to discuss contemporary literature in translation. On June 9\, 2026\, we’ll be discussing Beasts of the Sea by Iida Turpeinen. \n“Turpeinen matches the heights of Andrea Barrett” in this sweeping and intimate tale about a fateful encounter between man and nature spanning three centuries and linked by a long-extinct denizen of the northern oceans (Publishers Weekly starred review). \nIn 1741\, thirty-two-year-old naturalist Georg Wilhelm Steller joins Captain Bering’s Great Northern Expedition to scout out a sea route from Asia to America. Plagued with hardships\, captain and crew never reach their goal\, but they do make a unique discovery\, a gentle giant that will be named for the young explorer who described it: Steller’s sea cow. In 1859\, the governor of the Russian territory of Alaska sends his men to recover the skeleton of the massive marine mammal rumored to have vanished a hundred years before. Two years later\, a revered Helsinki professor hires a talented illustrator—a woman!—to make precise drawings of a set of bones sent from afar. \nThe ill-fated beast will help introduce to a skeptical public the concept of human-caused extinction. Finally\, in 1952\, the Museum of Zoology assigns its most talented restorer the task of refurbishing the antique skeleton\, a testimony to the sea cow’s fate that will fire the imaginations of future generations. \nA breathtaking literary achievement and an adventure that crosses continents and centuries\, Beasts of the Sea is a tale of grand ambition\, the quest for knowledge\, and the urge to resurrect what humankind has\, in its ignorance\, destroyed. \nBeasts of the Sea is available in paperback and e-book from Hachette Book Group and from Bookshop.org and other retailers. \n\nRegister
