SUMMARY:WOMAN AT WAR | SILVER ANNIVERSARY RESCREENS
DESCRIPTION:“A thoughtful and dynamic blend of genres”—On April 1\, see Woman at War to continue our Silver Anniversary Rescreens! First screened at Scandinavia House in 2020\, this contemporary environmental fable follows one Icelandic woman’s stubborn efforts to be on the right side of history. \nBehind the scenes of her quiet routine\, the independent 50-year-old Halla leads a double life as a passionate environmental activist. Known to others only by her alias “The Woman of the Mountain\,” Halla secretly wages a one-woman-war on the local aluminium industry. As Halla’s actions grow bolder\, from petty vandalism to outright industrial sabotage\, she succeeds in pausing the negotiations between the Icelandic government and the corporation building a new aluminium smelter in the mountains. \nBut right as she begins planning her biggest and boldest operation yet\, she receives an unexpected letter that changes everything: her application to adopt a child has finally been accepted\, and a little girl is waiting for her in Ukraine. As Halla prepares to abandon her role as saboteur and savior of the Highlands to fulfill her dream of becoming a mother\, she decides to plot one final attack to deal the aluminium industry a crippling blow. \n“Deftly centralizes a profound humanity…” (Variety) \nPurchase tickets \nThis program has been supported by the Monika and Charles Heimbold Fund for Exhibitions and Programs. \n

SUMMARY:NORDIC BOOK CLUB ONLINE | OUT OF THE BLUE: NEW SHORT FICTION FROM ICELAND
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 April 7\, 2026\, in coordination with our upcoming West Nordic art exhibition Inside Voices\, Outside Light\, we’ll be discussing Out of the Blue: New Short Fiction from Iceland\, edited by Helen Mitsios. \nThis extraordinary collection\, the first anthology of Icelandic short fiction published in English translation\, features work by twenty of Iceland’s most popular and celebrated living authors—including Andri Snær Magnason\, Jón Kalman Stefánsson\, Kristín Ómarsdóttir\, and Auður Jónsdóttir—granddaughter of Halldór Laxness\, who won the 1955 Nobel Prize in Literature. \nCelebrated in Europe and Scandinavia but less known in the English-speaking world\, these writers traverse realms of darkness and light that will be familiar to readers who have fallen under the spell of Scandinavian fiction. While uniquely Icelandic in topography and tenor\, with a touch of the island’s supernatural charm\, the stories traffic in the enduring and universal complexities of human nature. Here is a fictional universe where the ghosts of Vikings and spirits tread\, volcanoes grumble underfoot\, and writers trip the Northern Lights fantastic across the landscape of the Icelandic imagination. \n\nOut of the Blue is available in paperback and e-book from University of Minnesota Press and from Barnes and Noble and other retailers. \n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:LONG GOOD THURSDAY
DESCRIPTION:“Heartwarming… a great accomplishment”—On April 8\, see Long Good Thursday\, Finnish director Mika Kaurismaki‘s fourth installment of the rollicking Grump film series! \nSet in the lush days of a Finnish summer\, Long Good Thursday is a gentle comedy of growing older and of accepting the never-ending possibility of finding joy. Finnish comedy star Heikki Kinnunen plays an aging\, stubborn farmer intent on finishing his life in the home he shared with his late wife. Much to his surprise\, he finds himself smitten with a free-spirited artist\, called Saimi\, who is intent on using him as a model for her photography. \nHis sons are skeptical– even jealous –of their father\, and don’t trust Saimi’s intentions. Who knows\, maybe she’s after his inheritance? Family meetings\, misunderstandings\, swimming in the moonlight\, and sleepless nights show that the power of love can pierce through even the oldest of flannel shirts. \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:SUDDEN OUTBURSTS OF EMOTIONS
DESCRIPTION:“An insightful\, compassionate\, and witty debut”—On April 8\, see Sudden Outbursts of Emotions\, a tender dramedy about the complexities of modern love and mid-life crises! \nTravel agent Jane (Iina Kuustonen) lives a comfortable\, stable yuppie existence in Helsinki with Mikki (Riku Nieminen)\, her theatre-actor boyfriend of 10 years. While their sex life appears active and content on the surface\, Jane is thrown for a loop when Mikki suggests trying an “open relationship” to spice things up. Jane is initially resistant but eventually agrees to attend an exclusive sex-positive weekend retreat\, where the 40-ish couple can explore other romantic pursuits. While Mikki wanders off\, Jane bumps into Valma (Laura Malmivaara)\, a free-spirited woman and veteran of the polyamorous lifestyle\, who encourages Jane to explore hidden facets of her love language. As their bond deepens\, Jane finds herself navigating unfamiliar territory—desire\, jealousy\, and self-discovery—while her once-stable life begins to unravel. What began as an experiment in freedom becomes a profound turning point that challenges everything Jane thought she knew about relationships. \nThis debut feature from Finnish TV writer/director Paula Korva\, could be called a “rom-dramedy” for its skillful depiction of the awkwardness\, excitement\, and befuddlement felt by newbies to the 3D chess game of polyamory. Korva treats her characters with grace and humor\, allowing them room to evolve gradually in this modern spin on the joys and absurdities of gender-fluid dating. \nPurchase Tickets \n

SUMMARY:INSIDE VOICES\, OUTSIDE LIGHT OPENING CELEBRATION | ARTIST PANEL\, THE GREEN LAND SCREENING & BOOK LAUNCH
DESCRIPTION:On April 18\, in celebration of the opening of Inside Voices\, Outside Light\, join us for an Opening Celebration featuring a screening of the film The Green Land\, Greenlandic artist Inuk Silis Høegh’s land art work centered on his homeland’s staggering nature and its contested future; a book launch of co-curator Kinna Poulsen’s AT EYE LEVEL\, a treatise on 21st-century contemporary art of the Faroe Islands; followed by a panel discussion with exhibition artists Hansina Iversen and Jóhan Martin Christiansen\, moderated by co-curators Kinna Poulsen and Emily Stoddart. \nSCHEDULE \n\nThe Green Land—2:00 PM \nSee a presentation of The Green Land\, the Greenlandic artist Inuk Silis Høegh’s staggeringly beautiful Land Art work about his country’s monumental nature at a time when it is undergoing change. The rugged mountains\, deep fjords\, majestic ice and lush lowlands all take center stage as Silis Høegh intervenes\, rearranges\, applies colour and adds smoke in an effort to question for how long the Arctic nature will remain untouched. (34 min\, no dialogue) \n\n\nBook Launch & Artist Panel—3:00 PM \nFaroese artists Hansina Iversen and Jóhan Martin Christiansen will be joined by exhibition co-curators Kinna Poulsen and Emily Stoddart for a discussion on their works in Inside Voices\, Outside Light\, on view in the Scandinavia House Galleries through June 20. \nThis will also mark the launch of Kinna Poulsen’s new book AT EYE LEVEL\, an exploration of 21st century Faroese contemporary art. In his poem “Onkran morgun” (Some morning) by Jóanes Nielsen\, from the poetry collection Brúgvar av svongum orðum frá byrjanini av øldini from 2003\, he states that everything fixed will loosen\, and this depiction captures the very essence of this era so full of opportunities whilst also marked by threats and shifts\, which in varying ways have changed our ways of living and thinking – also in terms of art. This work sets out with a long essay on significant societal and cultural events that have come to characterise the 21st century both locally and internationally. This is then followed by a description of artistic pioneers – old as well as young – whose influence has carried on well into our time\, as well as artistic turning points that have moved us forward. The book concludes with a thorough analysis of the art of over fifty artists and includes an epilogue that sums up significant movements as well as the era itself. \n\nRegister

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT — NORTHERN PATTERNS: LEARN TRADITIONAL ARCTIC BEADING DETAILS
DESCRIPTION:*Please note: this workshop is now sold out.* \nThis hands-on workshop draws inspiration from the work of master bone carver Inna Eilyuvna Iadne\, whose intricate sculptures and jewelry reflect the cultural depth and artistic traditions of the Indigenous peoples of Yamal. Participants will explore Northern ornamental traditions through beadweaving\, translating symbolic patterns and storytelling elements into contemporary wearable art. \nThrough guided practice\, attendees will learn 1 to 3 beadweaving techniques and create an original jewelry piece such as earrings\, a bracelet\, or a pendant. Along the way\, they will gain insight into the symbolism\, composition\, and cultural context that inform Northern decorative arts\, as seen in Iadne’s meticulous attention to detail and narrative craftsmanship. \nThe workshop aims to develop artistic taste\, strengthen compositional thinking\, and equip participants with the skills to independently design and create meaningful handmade pieces that connect traditional heritage with modern expression. \n\nPurchase tickets

SUMMARY:DREAMS
DESCRIPTION:“An intensely compelling story about first love”—On April 29th\, see DREAMS\, Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud’s third installment of the widely acclaimed Oslo Trilogy and winner of the Golden Bear at the 2025 Berlin International Film Festival! \n17-year-old Johanne drifts and daydreams like any teenager\, until one day her restlessness morphs into all-consuming passion for her charismatic French teacher\, Johanna. From her vulnerable yet never maudlin inner monologue\, to her frank confessions to her poet grandmother and over-curious mother\, to nuanced scenes of intimacy with Johanna\, Haugerud paints a complex\, endearing\, and intoxicating portrait of youthful infatuation and self-discovery\, laced with the lightest touch of moral inquiry. \n“It sweeps you up\, assuredly and indeed dreamily… The film’s precise juxtapositions of sight and sound produce brilliant flashes of insight…and a cumulatively seductive\, almost musical flow.”  (Justin Chang\, The New Yorker) \nPurchase Tickets \n
