This work explores the film histories and cultures of Denmark,
Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, tracing the 20th-century
development of each country's domestic film prodcuction and cinema
audiences. The author discusses the place in cinema history of
international figures such as Mauritz Stiller, Victor Sjostrom,
Carl Dreyer and Ingmar Bergman, directors of films like "Vampyr",
"Ordet", "Wild Strawberries", and "Cries and Whispers". The author
looks at national film makers: August Blom, Bodil Ipsen, Lau
Lauritzen and Nils Malmros; and also discusses contemporary
film-makers like Gabriel Axel, the Kaurismaki brothers and Lars Von
Trier. In discussing the film culture of each country, each section
considers three specific questions: state control and support of
film production; the cultural characteristics of Nordic film which
both unify and define each country; and film production, content
and form. In a final chapter, the authors assess the direction and
future of the Nordic cinemas.
