PRESENTED BY
GOLD PARTNER SILVER PARTNER T he 2022 Carlsberg Scandinavian Film Festival,
now in its eighth year, showcases the best
contemporary cinema from these countries,
selected from international film festivals and
markets such as Göteborg, Cannes and Berlin.
Geographically, Scandinavia refers to the Northern
SUPPORTING PARTNERS HOTEL PARTNER European sub-region of Denmark, Norway and
Sweden, but nearly a decade ago at the Cannes
Film Festival the idea was born to incorporate
more countries from the Nordic region into a
festival for the Australian audience to experience.
Taking the lead from Scandinavian Films, the
umbrella organisation representing all five Nordic
MEDIA PARTNER CULTURAL PARTNER Film Institutes, we felt this was a perfect way to
present a curated selection from the region.
This year’s lineup features exciting new releases
and classic titles, including sweeping epics,
historical dramas, charming comedies and a focus
on food, plus much more.

We hope you enjoy the 2022 edition and feel a

remarkably authentic performances as Karl Oskar and
Kristina, a couple who meet with one physical and emotional
trial after another, having experienced an arduous journey
to America from Sweden, and now living in the wilderness
of Minnesota. While clearing and farming their land, they
must deal with the brutal realities of American frontier life,
including a fierce Sioux uprising and the bloody Civil War,
along with family squabbles and the lure of the gold fields
of California. Based on Swedish author Vilhelm Moberg’s
four-part series of novels about the mid-nineteenth-
century wave of emigration from Sweden to the United
States, Troell’s engrossing drama depicts with precise detail
their story, a story which is also that of countless other
people who sought better lives across the Atlantic.

F ood is the way to the heart in this entertaining and heart-
warming story of love, friendship and second chances.
Karin (Marie Richardson, Daybreak ) and Sten (Björn
Kjellman) are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary
with friends when when Karin discovers a secret Sten has
been hiding. Having spent her life taking care of her family,
the sudden change it brings forces Karin to re-evaluate her
life. Her old school friend Monika persuades her and their
mutual friend Pia to join a cooking class led by renowned
chef Henrik (Peter Stormare, Fargo).
So begins the Tuesday Club, and in the hot kitchen with
exotic spices, amazing food, old and new friends, more
than one of Karin’s long-lost passions are reborn. Amongst
the hissing frying pans and steaming scents, Karin soon
discovers that it is never too late to dare to follow her
dreams. A feel-good debut feature from Swedish director
Annika Apelin, Tuesday Club is a charming romantic
comedy about women, their friendships and passions, that
will inspire audiences to eat good food and embrace life.
