It explores the legacy and dilemmas faced by Denmark\u2019s Queen Margrete (the brilliant Trine Dyrholm) a visionary ruler who brokered the historic Kalmar Union uniting Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Dyrholm also stars in A MATTER OF TRUST (Ingen kender dagen), a tender and moving portrait of interpersonal trust and unspoken truths. Five stories intertwine in Annette K. Olesen\u2019s artful, elliptical, and bittersweet relationship drama, which had its world premiere at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Special Presentation is Finland\u2019s THE WOODCUTTER STORY (Metsurin tarina), the directorial debut of Mikko Myllylahti, fresh from the 2022 Cannes Film Festival Critics\u2019 Week. In an idyllic village, Pepe the woodcutter\u2019s quiet life is suddenly torn apart by a series of tragic events over the course of a few days, but he seems to be fine with it as if he holds a secret to existence that is hard to grasp.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_141776\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-141776\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-141776\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theblurb.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/SFF-Emigrants.jpg?resize=560%2C302&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theblurb.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/SFF-Emigrants.jpg?w=560&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theblurb.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/SFF-Emigrants.jpg?resize=300%2C162&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-141776\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Emigrants (2021)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Closing the festival is THE NEW LAND (Nybyggarna), the 1972 sequel to the original THE EMIGRANTS (Utvandrarna), starring cinema legends Max von Sydow and Liv Ullmann as Swedish immigrants who struggle to establish a new life for themselves in the forest of Minnesota in the mid 19th Century. In 1973, the film was nominated for an Oscar and won Best Foreign Language film at the Golden Globes and in 2022 celebrates its fiftieth anniversary. As a counterpoint, THE EMIGRANTS (2021) (Utvandrarna) from Sweden is famed director Erik Poppe\u2019s new adaptation of the award-winning classic. Starring Lisa Carlehed and Gustav Skarsg\u00e5rd, it follows the emigrants\u2019 journey from Sweden to the United States in the mid 1800s, telling the story for the first time from Kristina\u2019s perspective.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Festival celebrates Scandi Screen Sirens with the much-loved classics CASABLANCA (1942) starring Ingrid Bergman; QUEEN CHRISTINA (1933) starring the enigmatic Greta Garbo and the 2013 final-cut version of classic folk-horror film THE WICKER MAN (1973) starring 70s icon Britt Ekland.
