Are you ready for Sweden’s first vampire movie? Meet the Lost Girls of Lapland in director Anders Banke’s black comedy horror with polar bite. When doctor Annika (Petra Nielsen) moves to Norrbotten after finding work in the local hospital, all the signs look dismal to her teenage daughter Saga (Grete Havneskold). Endless nights with nothing to do. Soon Annika notices strange happenings at the hospital as the tiny community is struck by mysterious deaths. Frostbite features top of the range special effects and a whole avalanche of imaginative ideas and inventive jokes—like creating the perfect environment for vampires in a land without much sun. The harshness of the Swedish language to foreign ears is also used to great effect, giving rise to some fine one-liners. And when was the last time you saw vampire impalement by garden gnome!

Anders Banke will attend the screening.
