SUMMARY:One Last Deal /Tuntematon mestari
DESCRIPTION:On October 6\, see the hit new Finnish art mystery and redemption thriller One Last Deal (Finland\, 2019; dir. Klaus Härö) in New Nordic Cinema at Scandinavia House! \nElderly art dealer Olavi (Heikki Nousiainenis) has always put business and art before everything – even his family – and on the brink of retirement\, cannot imagine life without work. When an old painting at auction catches his attention\, Olavi suspects that it’s worth much more than starting price\, and decides to make one last deal in order to earn some proper pension money. With his teenage grandson Otto — the son of his long-estranged daughter Lea — he begins an investigation into the history of the painting\,  securing it at a much lower price than its true value. But when the auction house realizes the error\, he must face both them and his own past mistakes to leave the art scene as a winner. (95 min. In Finnish and Swedish with English subtitles) \n“An enthralling and warm-hearted tale of families\, loss and the most bitter-sweet of redemptions”—Stuff.co.nz \nFilm screenings will take place as a 3 PM matinee and 7 PM evening showing. Tickets to this event must be purchased in advance online at the link above; film screenings will take place in Victor Borge Hall.

SUMMARY:The Dog Park by Sofi Oksanen — Virtual Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:On October 10\, join us for a virtual book talk with acclaimed Finnish-Estonian author Sofi Oksanen on her new novel The Dog Park. With moderator Bethanne Patrick\, she’ll discuss the writing of the novel\, an international bestseller out in translation by Owen Frederick Witesman from Knopf on September 21. \nA captivating story of intrigue\, betrayal\, and murder in the global fertility market from Oksanen\, “an international publishing sensation frequently likened to Stieg Larsson” (The Guardian)\, The Dog Park begins in Helsinki\, 2016. Olenka sits on a bench\, watching a family play in a dog park\, as a stranger sits down beside her. Olenka startles; she would recognize this other woman anywhere — after all\, Olenka was the one who ruined her life. And this woman may be about to do the same to Olenka. Yet\, for a fragile moment\, here they are\, together — looking at their own children being raised by other people. \nMoving seamlessly between modern-day Finland and Ukraine in the early days of its post-Soviet independence\, The Dog Park is a keenly observed\, dark\, and propulsive novel set at the intersection of East and West\, centered on a web of exploitation and the commodification of the female body. \nSofi Oksanen brings fearless psychological acuity to this captivating story about a woman unable to escape the memory of her lost child\, the ruthless powers that still hunt her\, and the lies that could well end up saving her. \nThis event will take place as a Zoom webinar; please ask questions in the chat or send them in advance to  info@amscan.org. Registration is required; please sign up at the link above. This event has been organized in collaboration with Politics & Prose in Washington D.C.; click here to pre-order the book. \n“A dystopian novel that seems all too real”—Kirkus Reviews \n \nAbout the Author\nSofi Oksanen is a Finnish-Estonian novelist and playwright. She has received numerous prizes for her work\, including the Swedish Academy Nordic Prize\, the Prix Femina Étranger\, the Budapest Grand Prize\, the European Book Prize\, and the Nordic Council Literature Prize.
