SUMMARY:MY FREEDOM | NORDIC & BALTIC OSCAR CONTENDERS
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of My Freedom (dir. Ilze Kunga-Melgaile\, Latvia\, 2023) in the Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series at Scandinavia House! The series returns this year with screenings of films chosen by the Nordic & Baltic countries to compete for the Oscar nomination for the Best International Feature Film\, including this year’s candidate for Latvia. \nBased on historical events\, My Freedom takes place in perestroika-era Latvia\, a time when the winds of change are blowing. The freethinking and charismatic Alicija\, a Latvian of Polish extraction\, is blissfully married to Ilgvars\, a conservatively minded professor of mathematics. Despite her husband’s concerns\, Alicija becomes active in the anti-Soviet Popular Front\, a movement still relegated to the underground. When her friends and peers encourage her to run for a seat in the Latvian Supreme Council\, Alicija receives an anonymous letter threatening to upend her life and her marriage. Unsure of who to trust\, she must consider the question: love or independence? \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:TWICE COLONIZED | SCREENING & FILM TALK WITH AAJU PETER
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special screening and film talk of Twice Colonized (dir. Lin Alluna; Denmark\, Canada and Greenland; 2023) with Inuk lawyer Aaju Peter! Returning this November and December\, the New York Baltic Oscar Contenders series features films chosen for Oscar nominations at the 96th Annual Academy Awards. This screening features the Greenlandic winner of the Cannes Film Market’s Award for Best Doc-in-Progress and the Movies That Matter Festival’s Camera Justitia Award\, which has been selected as a contender for Best Documentary Feature Film at the Oscars. \nTwice Colonized is a documentary profile of renowned Inuk lawyer Aaju Peter and a sober look at the social cost of forced assimilation. Peter was raised in Denmark\, the land of her colonizers\, where her parents sent her to receive a Western education when she was only a child. This traumatic separation from her home\, family\, and culture at a young age profoundly influenced Peter\, inspiring her to devote her life to the pursuit of justice for Inuit people across Canada and Greenland. While launching an effort to establish an Indigenous Forum at the EU\, Peter finds herself facing a difficult and deeply personal journey to mend her own wounds after the unexpected passing of her youngest son. Lin Alluna’s incisive and necessary film “begins with a childhood lost but expands into something much much more\, where specters of an individual’s past bleed into the collective horrors of the present” (The Film Verdict). \nAaju Peter\, who is featured in the film\, presents a talk after the screening. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:APOLONIA\, APOLONIA | SCREENING & DIRECTOR TALK
DESCRIPTION:“An impressively idiosyncratic\, far-reaching work…” (Variety) — see Danish filmmaker Lea Glob’s fascinating portrait of an artist as a young woman\, Apolonia\, Apolonia (Denmark/Poland\, 20223)! Returning this November and December\, the New York Baltic Oscar Contenders series features films chosen for Oscar nominations at the 96th Annual Academy Awards. The director will be present for a talk about her film\, which has been selected as a contender for Best Documentary Feature Film. \nWhen Lea Glob first met (and filmed) Apolonia Sokol in 2009\, she appeared to be leading a storybook life. The talented young painter was born in an underground theater in Paris and grew up in an artists’ community — the ultimate bohemian existence — later studying in her 20s at the Beaux-Arts de Paris\, one of the most prestigious art academies in Europe. Over the next 13 years\, Glob continued to film the charismatic Apolonia\, as a special bond developed between the two young women. In the resulting documentary\, we see a young woman trying to find her place in the art world: one who is confident in her talent\, but does not always find herself on an easy path. Apolonia soon learns that women painters have to make more sacrifices and overcome greater obstacles than their male counterparts do\, a lesson that applies both herself and her longtime friend Oksana Shachko\, one of the founders of the feminist action group Femen. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT: ROSE — SCREENING & DIRECTOR TALK
DESCRIPTION:*This event is now SOLD OUT.* \nOn November 17\, see the moving new Danish drama Rose (France/Denmark\, 2023)\, with a film talk and Q&A by director Niels Arden Oplev! \nRose is the story of two sisters\, Inger (Sofia Gråbøl) and Ellen (Lena Maria Christensen)\, and how their relationship is challenged on a highly anticipated coach trip to Paris. In the late summer of 1997\, Ellen and her husband Vagn (Andres W Berthelsen) arrive at an institution in Northern Denmark to pick up Ellen’s mentally ill sister Inger for a trip to France. When Inger announces her struggles with schizophrenia to their coach group\, the sisters are faced with pity from some and discrimination from others; among those is the teacher Skelbæk (Søren Malling)\, who declares himself the champion of normality\, and his young son Christian (Luca Reichardt Ben Coker)\, whose child’s curiosity and innocence leads him to develop a friendship with Inger that only grows fonder the closer they get to Paris. \nOn arrival\, however\, it soon becomes clear that Inger holds many secrets\, including an ability to speak French fluently and rescue her group on several occasions\, but also a hidden agenda concerning a figure from her past — Jacques (Jean-Pierre Lorit)\, her first love who left her when she was young. In the city where it all began\, Inger separates from the guided tour and ultimately involves the entire group in her hunt for answers\, leading to self-discovery\, conflict\, and reconciliation. Hailed as “refreshing…with fully fleshed out characters all of whom have their own journeys to undertake” (Eye for Film)\, Rose is a film about being able to love and care for each other in spite of our differences\, and not judging a book by its cover.
