SUMMARY:The Last Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Helene and Stephen Weicholz Global Film Series\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				In Swedish with English subtitlesSweden / Not rated / Directed by Felip Hammar and Fredrik Wikingsson / 2024 / Documentary / 95 minutes \nSelected as Sweden’s entry for Best International Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards. When French teacher Lars Hammar retires\, he envisions a delightful “third age” with travel\, wine\, and experiences together with his wife\, Tiina. However\, instead of indulging in life’s pleasures\, Lars becomes increasingly passive and lacking in willpower\, to the great frustration and despair of both Tiina and their son\, Filip. That’s when Filip gets an idea: to take his frail old father to his beloved France and let him revisit the places he has loved most in life. By retracing the same road trip the family used to take when Filip was a child and secretly orchestrating some of life’s most delightful moments\, he hopes to reignite Lars’ zest for life. With the help of Filip’s best friend Fredrik\, some hefty doses of optimism and creativity\, and an old orange Renault 4\, the adventure can begin. \nJoin us for a brief post-show talkback with film series curator Dale Pollock\, as he discusses the movie in deeper context. \n  \nTHEME“The theme for this year’s series is Family\, in its many forms and permutations. This selection of international films focuses on the fragility of family relationships when they are tested from within or from outside pressures\, and how they remain resilient.” —Dale Pollock \nClick here for Dale’s brief overview of the theme and of The Last Journey. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tickets\nContact theschaefercenter@appstate.edu\, call 828-262-4046\, visit the box office at the Schaefer Center for the Performing Arts\, or purchase online. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				$10 General Admission \nAll tickets are subject to NC sales tax.Online sales are subject to ticket fees. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Buy Tickets\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Parking\nParking can be challenging\, particularly for sold-out events.
