‘Battle of Oslo’ Film Premiere
This event has already finished but is here for your information
The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Battle of Oslo," showing Aug. 15-20 at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres. “Battle of Oslo” tells the true story of Colonel Eriksen, who, on April 9, 1940, sank a German warship approaching Oslo. His decision delayed the Nazi invasion and saved the king and government—yet he was later treated unfairly by a military commission. While the outcome of the battle is well-known in Norway, the film delves into the lesser-known post-war trials of Eriksen. Confronted by a military commission, he must defend his actions against criticism for his early surrender of the fortress. Eriksen must fight a battle for fame and honor. The film combines two story lines and thus becomes both an exciting war film and a thriller intertwined. “Battle of Oslo” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres Aug. 15-20. Showtimes will be Saturday, Aug. 15, at 12:30 p.m.; Sunday and Thursday, Aug. 16 and 20, at 7:00 p.m.; and Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, Aug. 17, 18, and 19, at 4:00 p.m. Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona.
