SUMMARY:TWO PROSECUTORS | NEW BALTIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:On May 27\, see the enthralling\, Baltic-produced historical drama Two Prosecutors! Based upon a long-unpublished novella by Soviet gulag survivor Georgy Demidov\, Two Prosecutors paints a hypnotic\, chilling\, blackly comic portrait of the mechanisms of Great Purge-era tyranny\, with a potent contemporary resonance. \nSummoned with a blood-written note smuggled out of a prison block\, an idealistic state lawyer (Alexander Kuznetsov) pushes past the prison’s leery authorities to interview an elderly\, broken-down Bolshevik (Aleksandr Filippenko). The young attorney\, determined to expose the miscarriages of justice that landed the man in confinement\, finds the eye of the state turned on him instead\, as an ever-tightening net encircles his investigation. Set at the height of the Great Purge and drenched in the paranoia of Stalin’s police state\, filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa’s latest triumph is a chilling\, Kafkaesque thriller about the impunity of power and matter-of-fact horrors of fascism. \n“Loznitsa holds you rapt with brutal faces\, restless camera work\, meticulous filmmaking\, shivers of bitter wit\, and scenes of characters just talking that set your heart to racing. This is the kind of international title that enriches American moviegoing life.” (Manohla Dargis\, The New York Times) \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:THE LOVE THAT REMAINS | NEW NORDIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:On June 3\, see Icelandic director Hlynur Pálmason’s tender\, quirky family drama The Love That Remains! \nCharting the gradual evolution of a family in the midst of an irreparable fracture\, The Love That Remains is a poignant\, crisply pointillistic domestic drama that observes life’s changes with humor and whimsy\, set against the majestic\, ever-shifting Icelandic landscape. Visual artist Anna (Saga Garðarsdóttir) and fisherman Magnús (Sverrir Guðnason) were teenage sweethearts but have recently grown apart\, and Magnús has moved out of the house. As long as the newly estranged parents put on a good face\, the children—and their adorable sheepdog Panda (who won the prestigious Palme Dog award at Cannes)—seem to take the split in stride. Yet as Magnús becomes increasingly alienated from his domestic life\, harsh reality can’t help but bubble to the surface. \nHlynur Pálmason’s follow-up to his austere 19th-century drama Godland is a “constantly surprising” film with an immaculate sense of framing and pacing—and an evocative\, dulcet piano score by Harry Hunt—dotted with idiosyncratic flights of fancy that never detract from the central emotional authenticity. \nPurchase Tickets

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
