The Home of Scandinavian Film Festival L.A.! The eleventh annual Scandinavian Film Festival L.A., sponsored by ASFLA, comes to the Writers Guild Theater in Beverly Hills, spanning two weekends: Saturday and Sunday, 9–10 January; and Saturday and Sunday, 16–17 January, 2010. Scandinavian Film Festival L.A. is Los Angeles' annual showcase of Nordic films and filmmakers, screening each year's Scandinavian films submitted to the Academy as nominees for Best Foreign-Language Film. Held at the Writers Guild Theater in Beverly Hills, CA, it also shows documentaries, short subjects and other pictures by Scandinavian filmmakers.

Scandinavian Film Festival L.A. is underwritten by ASFLA, with Scandinavian consulates, and generous support of national film organizations, individuals and corporate donors.
