See the best films that Scandinavia has to offer for free!
The Volvo Scandinavian Film brings breathtaking contemporary Nordic cinema to Palace Cinemas screens from 10 July in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Canberra, Brisbane and Hobart. The diverse program features an esteemed selection of films from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland.
Opening the festival is Under the Tree, a very dark comedy from Icelandic writer-director Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurdsson. The shade from a front-yard tree sees the already simmering tensions between two families come to the boil in an astute observation of suburban mores.
Mid-way through the 20-day festival will be special event screenings of Amateurs, winner of the 2018 Göteborg Film Festival award for Best Nordic Film. The comedy from director Gabriela Pichler hints at the changing face of Sweden as two high school girls use mobiles and selfie-sticks to create a promotional video for their town.
Other films in the program include winner of Best Screenplay and Best Actress at the Danish Academy Awards A Horrible Woman; Darling, a captivating film with a superb Danica Curcic in the lead; the wry comedy Word of God starring Søren Malling, in which changes threaten the peace in a 1980s suburban Danish household; While We Live, the Danish Academy Award nominated drama from Mehdi Avaz which follows four people in Northern Denmark and how their fates intertwine after a tragic accident; and winner of Best Film at the 2018 Danish Academy Awards Winter Brothers, which follows two brothers caught in a violent feud with a neighbouring family.
