About this event

This month we are discussing three short films:

Knight of Fortune (24 minutes)
The Silence (16 minutes)
Do I Have to Take Care of Everything? (6 minutes)

Knight of Fortune, a 2023 Academy Awards nominee, addresses the loss of a loved one, the
grief, the risk of yellow skin and a coffin. It is too much for Karl to face. It’s much easier to fix a
broken lamp. A chance encounter helps him face his pain.

The Silence was nominated for the Palme d’Or for Best Short Film in 2016. Fatima and her
mother are Kurdish refugees in Italy. During a visit with their doctor, Fatima is asked to
translate what the doctor tells her, but she keeps silent.

Do I Have to Take Care of Everything? was nominated for the 2011 Academy Award for Best
Short Film. Sini wakes in a panic: she has slept in, and the family is late for a wedding. She wakes
her husband Jokke and their daughters. They start to prepare themselves in a hurry. Mother is
going crazy since nobody else seems to be able to do anything right. Who has messed with
father’s shirt, hid the girls’ dresses and where is the wedding gift? 

Watch ahead of time on Kanopy (or other streaming service), then join the discussion on Zoom.
