Nordic Oscar Contenders Festival

  • Gonewiththewoman_web_large

The American-Scandinavian Association presents a series of exclusive sneak peeks at the best films from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, all competing in the Best Foreign Language Film category at the Oscars. Toghether, the flicks cover the delicate balance of family and relationships, set against sparse Scandinavian backgrounds. Highlights include Jar City, a complex murder mystery dealing with the power of information and knowledge of one's past — directed by Baltasar Kormákur, fan actor and darling of the Icelandic screen; and the darkly comic and fable-like Gone with the Woman, which focuses on the differences between the sexes, after its laconic protagonist finds himself in a relationship he neither pursued nor wanted.
