SUMMARY:A WOMAN LOOKS OVER HER SHOULDER | NORDIC BOOK CLUB
DESCRIPTION:Read and discuss literature with our Nordic Book Club Online! On June 10\, we’ll be discussing A Woman Looks Over Her Shoulder\, a collection by contemporary Icelandic poet Brynja Hjálmsdóttir that has been hailed as “peculiar and unforgettable\,” “strange and compelling\,” and “deeply weird\,” and whose translation by Rachel Britton was the recipient of ASF’s 2023 Leif and Inger Sjöberg Prize. \nIn A Woman Looks Over Her Shoulder\, one woman lives in a glass ball that is being shaken by someone else. This book of poems\, however\, is always shaking itself up\, leaping between the extreme and the daily\, the gross and the delicious\, between being scared and being scary. These surreal\, visceral\, and somehow polite poems explore what it can be like to be a woman and to slither through and away from threat to find voice and form and power\, no matter how strange. The apocalyptic utopia we arrive at in this book—The Whore’s City—is a perfect model to move to in one’s head: feminist\, funny\, odd\, and a little disgusting\, all towards transformation. \nA Woman Looks Over Her Shoulder is available in paperback from Circumference Books\, from Asterism Books\, and from Amazon. \nNordic Book Club Online meets virtually via Zoom. \nRegister

SUMMARY:THE SWEDISH TORPEDO
DESCRIPTION:“[A] buoyant\, self-willed\, defiant biopic” — on June 11\, see the heroic story of long-distance champion swimmer Sally Bauer in New Nordic Cinema! \nIn 1939\, World War II is around the corner—but the only thing Sally Bauer (Josefin Neldén) can think of is the ocean. Obsessed with swimming since childhood\, her father’s attempts to curb the habit have been unsuccessful\, until an unwanted pregnancy forces her to abandon her dream. As an unwed single mother\, she has no room for ambition. But when her sister Carla gives her renewed purpose\, the two set out to dismantle the conventions working against them to realize Sally’s ultimate goal: swimming across the English Channel. \nFacing sexism\, raising a seven-year-old\, and raising money to train and prepare abroad are daunting enough\, and as war spreads across Europe\, the Channel soon becomes a frontier between Allies and Axis powers. But as Sally steps onto the shores of Dover to take her first steps into the open and icy sea\, her journey has only just begun.  A complex and heroic film\, The Swedish Torpedo (Den svenska torpeden\, dir. Frida Kempff\, Sweden 2024) features a riveting performance by Josefin Neldén as an ultimate trailblazer. \n“Exhilarating and heartfelt… Josefin Neldén is utterly mesmerizing” (Reel News Daily) \nThis program has been supported by the Swedish Film Institute and the Swedish Institute. \n

SUMMARY:KAISA'S MACHINE
DESCRIPTION:Join us on June 12 for a performance by jazz quartet Kaisa’s Machine\, featuring acclaimed Finnish bass player and ASF Fellow Kaisa Mäensivu with Max Light (guitar)\, Eden Ladin (piano)\, and Joe Peri (drums)! \nWith compositions ranging from bouncy to groovy\, to celebratory to existential\, Kaisa’s Machine was formed by Mäensivu in 2015\, and released the debut album In the Key of K in 2017. Now based in NYC\, the group has brought new players into its orbit\, and released the follow-up album Taking Shape with Greenleaf Music in 2023. With richly emotive and demanding writing\, Mäensivu’s music features a sense of story\, a sonic richness and surprise. As Mäensivu says\, “The music captures the magic of New York\, where the atmosphere is open to new things.” \n“Strong\, highly musical bass presence” — London Jazz News\n“A band of young aces” — NYTimes \nPhoto—Anna-Maria Vikstrom

SUMMARY:MEMORIAL BY ALEJANDRO LEIVA WENGER | SATC READING
DESCRIPTION:See a staged reading from the Scandinavian American Theater Company (SATC) of playwright Alejandro Leiva Wenger’s Memorial! \nWhen Sackarias passes away suddenly\, Jon accepts an invitation to attend his memorial service\, grateful to be considered one of his closest high-school friends. There is only one problem: Jon has no memory of Sackarias\, or their friendship… \nJon\, guilt-ridden and eager to please\, attends the memorial. What follows is a high-stakes improvisation game\, as Jon hopes every piece of information he finds out about Sackarias will provide comfort and meaning to his loved ones – and trigger his memory of an important friendship. \nEqual parts thriller and comedy\, Memorial explores loss\, the malleability of memory\, language and its loopholes\, and the narratives we tell ourselves about those we love\, while elegantly interweaving existential questions with a wry and sometimes absurd humor. \nThe play has been translated by May-Brit Akerholt.
