Join us for our monthly lunch program and enjoy a Nordic film and hot soup at the Museum! This month, we watch the Norwegian film: Elling (2001).

Based on the best selling Norwegian novel by Ingvar Ambjørnsen, Elling is a slyly funny odd couple comedy about two misfits trying to find their place in the world.

After a two-year stint in a state home in which the shy, neurotic Elling and the loud, sex-obsessed Kjell Bjarne have become close friends, the pair find themselves placed in a state funded apartment and are told to behave like normal members of society. In time, as they learn to adjust, the two find quirky ways to cope with society, striking up unlikely friendships in the strangest places. Now, they're packed and ready for the greatest adventure of their lives—all they have to do is get out of the house.

This is the last Soup & Cinema ofthe season!

We will be serving soup, bread, coffee, and cookies.

Cost: $15 for Members; $20 general admission (price includes food and refreshments; RSVP required.)
