Scandinavian Film Festival L.A. is a yearly showcase of films from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.  The purposely non-competitive festival constitues an "annual residency of Nordic film in the film capital of the world" giving Los Angeles audiences an opportunity to immerse themselves in the representative "best" of Nordic film making in any given year.  In the Los Angeles winter "film season" build up to many awards including the Academy Awards, the festival pivots around screenings of "Oscar" submissions and current feature films along with selected shorts and documentaries.

In 2009 we celebrated a decade of sharing excellence in film making in the northern "lights, camera, action" of Nordic film makers.  One writer called Scandinavian Film Festival L.A. "the place where Nordic films winters in Southern California."  The audience includes industry professionals, L.A. film lovers, visiting film makers and celebrities, along with homesick "ex-pats" and delegations from local European/International/Nordic interest communities.

Film is an equal opportunity to celebrate both individual identity and common humanity.  Prepare to be shaken, stirred, tickled, touched, troubled, placated, or provoked, enlightened, and always entertained!
