SUMMARY:THE SECRET READING CLUB OF KABUL | NORDIC & BALTIC OSCAR CONTENDERS
DESCRIPTION:On December 2\, Scandinavia House presents a special screening and director talk of a Finnish qualifier for Best Documentary Feature Film at the 99th Academy Awards: the powerful documentary The Secret Reading Club of Kabul. \nIn Taliban-controlled Afghanistan\, where women are denied the right to study\, work\, and speak freely\, a group of young women make a radical choice: they read. Inspired by Anne Frank\, they secretly form a reading club and begin writing their own diaries — not as victims\, but as witnesses. The Secret Reading Club becomes an act of resistance: documenting their lives as a timeless defense of humanity\, beyond borders or eras. \nPartially filmed by the women themselves\, The Secret Reading Club of Kabul is an intimate and confidential testimony to the power of art to keep hope and humanism alive. It is also a moving declaration of love for literature and for the act of reading itself.  The story is interwoven with director Shakiba Adil’s own journey. As a girl\, she grew up under the first Taliban regime\, and after the fall of the Taliban\, she became the first woman to appear on Afghan television. After being forced to flee her homeland twice\, she has now dedicated her film to the new generation facing the same oppression she herself has endured. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:HOW TO DIVORCE DURING THE WAR | NORDIC & BALTIC OSCAR CONTENDERS
DESCRIPTION:On December 3\, Scandinavia House presents a special screening featuring Lithuania’s official entry for Best International Feature Film at the 99th Academy Awards: the “smart\, dryly humorous” and widely lauded How to Divorce During the War. \nVilnius\, 2022. High-flying executive Marija chooses the worst possible moment to inform her husband Vytas she wants a divorce: just one day before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Suddenly the couple must navigate separating in the middle of a refugee and mid-life crisis. As the reason for their divorce gradually becomes clear\, the dissolution of the marriage and the turmoil of world events creates conflicts and opportunities for them both—and for their ever-observant young daughter. Packed with surprises along with much heartache and soul searching\, Andrius Blaževičius’ nuanced and timely family drama skillfully depicts the fallout of a marriage against the backdrop of extraordinary events with humor and compassion. \n“A subtly searing comedy… both empathetic and surgical.” (Variety) \nPurchase Tickets
