SUMMARY:The Artist's Wife
DESCRIPTION:Starting FRI—September 25\n$12 \n50% of proceeds will support ASF + Scandinavia House \n\n\n**A link to purchase tickets will be available on September 25.** \n\nScandinavia House is now hosting a virtual cinema presentation of the new film The Artist’s Wife\, starring the internationally acclaimed Swedish actress Lena Olin\, with Strand Releasing. Half of proceeds will go to support ASF and Scandinavia House. \n\nClaire (Lena Olin) lives a domestic life in the Hamptons as the wife of celebrated artist Richard Smythson (Bruce Dern). Once a promising painter herself\, Claire now lives in the shadow of her husband’s illustrious career. But when Richards’ moods become increasingly erratic as he prepares for his final show and he is eventually diagnosed with dementia\, Claire must shield his condition from the art community as his memory and behavior deteriorate\, while working to reconnect him with his estranged daughter and a grandson from a previous marriage. \nChallenged by the loss of her world as she knew it\, Claire must now decide whether to stand with Richard on the sidelines — or step into the spotlight herself. Directed by Tom Dolby (U.S.\, 2019); 95 min. In English. \n\n\nLena Olin and director Tom Dolby will present a special virtual introduction to accompany the release; check back to this page for more details. \n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE DIRECTOR\n\n\n\nTom Dolby’s feature film writing and directing debut\, Last Weekend\, starring Patricia Clarkson\, was released in 2014 by IFC/Sundance Selects and called “Checkhovian” by The New York Times\, with Ms. Clarkson’s performance hailed as “terrifically nuanced\, heartbreaking\, and often very funny” by the San Francisco Chronicle.

SUMMARY:The Bell in the Lake by Lars Mytting
DESCRIPTION:**Nordic Book Club will take place as an online meeting** \n\n\nRead and discuss Scandinavian literature in translation as part of our Nordic Book Club\, now online! Each month we select a novel from some of the best Nordic literary voices. Discussions have typically taken place the last Tuesday of the month at Scandinavia House but will now be taking place bi-weekly as an online meeting. Register here to sign up for the meeting; registrants will receive a web link to where the meeting will take place. \nBook club participants will all appear online at the start of the meeting when they log in so that they are able to take part in the conversation. For participants who would prefer not to be visible onscreen\, see an easy tutorial online here on how to set a profile image that will appear onscreen instead. \n\n\nOn October 20\, we’ll be discussing the Norwegian bestseller The Bell in the Lake by Lars Mytting\, who joined us for an online conversation about the book on October 1. \nFor as long as people can remember\, the stave church’s bells have rung over the isolated village of Butangen\, Norway: cast in memory of conjoined twins\, the bells are said to ring on their own in times of danger. When in 1879\, young pastor Kai Schweigaard moves to the village\, young Astrid Hekne  sees a way into a much yearned-for modern life on the arm of the new pastor\, who needs a tie to the community to cull favor for his plan for the old stave church\, with its pagan deity effigies and supernatural bells. But when the pastor makes a deal that brings an outsider — a sophisticated German architect — into their world\, the village and Astrid are caught between past and future\, as dark forces come into play. \nLars Mytting\, bestselling author of Norwegian Wood\, brings his deep knowledge of history\, carpentry\, fishing\, and stave churches to this compelling historical novel\, an international bestseller sold in 12 countries. With its broad-canvas narrative about the intersection of religion\, superstition\, and duty\, The Bell in the Lake  is an irresistible story of ancient times and modern challenges. \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER
