Long Awaited: Swedish Film Festival in Kuala Lumpur

Mention Swedish film and most people immediately think of Ingmar Bergman, but a new generation of filmmakers is aiming to change all that. Sweden has already garnered three Academy Award nominations so fast this century in the category best foreign film. Come April 24-27, you will have the opportunity to enjoy an exclusive selection of contemporary Swedish films in Kuala Lumpur.

The new generation of Swedish film makers has been internationally praised and rewarded several prestigious nominations and awards. The last decade’s trend in Swedish film has been a multicultural perspective, created by new talented authors and filmmakers embraced by the Swedish audience. Another recent trend is a rural setting, portraying life in the countryside. Children’s film has held a strong position in Sweden since the 1950’s, and juvenile’s film has proliferated in recent years.

Swedish film is indeed varying and has something to offer everyone.  Enjoy the Film Smorgasbord at the Swedish Film Festival 2008!

Date: 24 to 27 April 2008

Venue: Panggung Bandaraya, Jalan Raja Laut, Kuala Lumpur
