SUMMARY:SWEDISH BEGINNER 2 — HYBRID LANGUAGE CLASSES
DESCRIPTION:Learn the Nordic languages in classes offered this winter at Scandinavia House! This course is for those who are still new to Swedish but perhaps have studied some on their own using apps or through other means. Students will have a basic knowledge of sentence structure\, greetings\, know their numbers\, how to tell time and already possess a small but basic vocabulary. This semester the students will move beyond themselves and explore how to buy and order things\, talk about what they do in their spare time\, and read about an historical figure. Grammatically they will expand into other tenses and learn how adjectives and nouns inform each other. Various facets of Swedish life may be discussed during the course. This class will take place as hybrid learning on Mondays with classes offered at Scandinavia House and online via Zoom\, and online-only on Wednesdays. \nEnroll

SUMMARY:SAUNA: THE POWER OF DEEP HEAT
DESCRIPTION:On October 24\, join us for a book discussion with author Emma O’Kelly on Sauna: The Power of Deep Heat! With moderator Eero Kilpi (President\, the North American Sauna Society)\, she’ll discuss her book exploring the new wave of sauna culture spreading throughout the world\, out September 19 from Welbeck. \nSaunas are now being built in unique settings providing tech-free spaces in which to gather\, share stories and enjoy nature. The tradition has a rich history\, filled with rituals that encourage us to soak up the mental and physical joys of deep heat. Sauna highlights the benefits the sauna brings to body and mind\, its connection to nature\, its history and mythology and its compatibility with another great invigorator – cold water swimming. \nAccompanied by stunning photography by Maija Astikainen\, Sauna honors the old\, embraces the new\, and plunges headlong into the transformative power of steam. \n“Smartly written and beautifully illustrated”—Mikkel Aaland\, author of Sweat \n“An essential guide to a movement reborn\, blending modernity and tradition\, design and wellness\, community and nature”—Sarah Douglas\, Editor-in-Chief\, Wallpaper* magazine \nSpecial thanks to the North American Sauna Society. \nRegister

SUMMARY:THE WOODCUTTER STORY
DESCRIPTION:This fall at Scandinavia House\, experience Nordic comedy at its darkest with “Svart Humor”! “If there’s a dead body in Denmark\, someone is going to make a joke about it\,” director Anders Jensen once said; Nordic comedies are as known for their deadpan\, dry wit as for their occasionally noir subject matter\, celebrating the “svart/sort” (dark) side of life’s hilarities. \nOn October 25\, see the Finnish dark comedy The Woodcutter Story (Metsurin Tarina\, dir. Mikko Myllylahti\, Finland/Netherlands/Denmark/Germany\, 2022)! Pepe (Jarkko Lahti ) is a woodcutter in an idyllic small town in northern Finland\, who deeply believes in a better tomorrow. Over the span of a couple of days\, however\, a series of events gradually destroys the quiet and happy life he once had. \nBut as chaos\, and strife\, and surreal adventures are repeatedly thrown at him\, Pepe remains smiling\, optimistic\, and determined to the look on the bright side of life. As if he knew a secret to existence that no one else did… \nAnchored by a riotously deadpan lead performance and a wild cast of characters (including a child barber\, a singing psychic\, and a talking fish)\, this absurd and hilarious fable from The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki writer Mikko Myllylahti is an ode to optimism despite losing everything. \nSelected for L’Atelier Cannes in 2019 and labs such as Next Step in 2018\, Torino FeatureLab in 2018\, Toronto Filmmaker Lab in 2018\, Jerusalem Film Lab in 2016 and Berlinale Script Station in 2015. \n“A Kaurismäkian variant on Twin Peaks\, with a soupçon of Fargo“—Screen International \n“The Woodcutter Story might be the most terrifying movie of the year”—The Playlist \nRegister
