SUMMARY:NORDIC BOOK CLUB ONLINE: THIRTY DAYS OF DARKNESS
DESCRIPTION:Read and discuss literature with our Nordic Book Club Online! On March 12\, we’ll be exploring Thirty Days Of Darkness by Jenny Lund Madsen\, an atmospheric\, darkly funny and twisty debut thriller now out in translation by Megan E. Turney about a Danish author who must write a crime novel in 30 days — while solving a murder along the way. \nCopenhagen author Hannah is the darling of the literary community and her novels have achieved massive critical acclaim — but no one ever actually reads them. When the acerbic and snobbish writer is publicly challenged to write a crime novel in the span of the month\, her editor sends her to Húsafjöður for inspiration\, a quiet\, tight-knit village in Iceland filled with colorful local characters. \nBut two days after her arrival\, the body of a fisherman’s young son is pulled from the water … and what begins as a search for plot material quickly turns into a messy and dangerous investigation that threatens to put everything at risk\, including Hannah. Can she solve the murder and bring peace to the victim’s loved ones\, while turning out a bestseller at the same time? \nRegister

SUMMARY:UNRULY | NEW NORDIC CINEMA
DESCRIPTION:On March 13\, join us for a screening of Unruly (dir. Malou Reymann\, Denmark\, 2022)\, a new Danish historical drama about a woman’s struggle to escape forced institutionalization in the 1930s. \nIn conservative early twentieth-century Denmark\, strong-minded Maren is widely considered to be ill-mannered and promiscuous. Amid growing concerns that her “unruly” behavior will infect others\, she is sent away to a women’s institution on the small island of Sprogø\, where she’s to learn to behave properly. Marin shares a room with Sørine\, who has already accepted the conventional narrative that she is unwell and adjusted her behavior accordingly to fit in with society. Sørine is tasked with guiding Maren through Sprogø to help facilitate her rehabilitation\, but Maren’s refusal to comply with the system leads to terrible consequences for both women. Inspired by real historical events\, Unruly is a powerful reminder of misogyny’s psychic toll. \nPurchase Tickets
