Norwegian, Swede, Dane – festival special (digital)

The stricter infection control measures adopted by the Norwegian authorities for the Bergen region from 7-14 February mean that LitFestBergen must cancel all physical events. All ticket purchases for physical events will be refunded. Streaming tickets costing NOK 40.00 for this event will be available at ticketco.no. A number of programme items will be shown free on YouTube.

They call it pan-Scandinavian family therapy. Culture journalist and author Åsa Linderborg in Sweden and Danish author and dramatist Hassan Preisler meet journalist and editor Hilde Sandvik from Norway in the weekly radio programme Norsken, svensken og dansken from the respective national broadcasters (NRK, DR and SR). They discuss events large and small which have caught the public eye over the previous week to creating greater understanding of how similarly and differently these three nations experience society around them. 

Bearing the festival theme of “Generations” in their baggage, the trio visit LitFestBergen and let the audience share in the therapy. 

This event will be in Norwegian.
