There are strong connections between Dumfries and Norway, especially dating from World War II. By 1940, the Nazis had overrun Norway; many men from the Norwegian army and others sought safety in Scotland. Hundreds were welcomed into Dumfries, which became the headquarters of the Norwegian Free Army. A good number were billeted in Rosefield Mills, 85 years ago.

The film 'The Heroes of Telemark' celebrates the efforts of Norwegians to prevent the Nazis developing the atom bomb. Judith Hewitt, Museums Curator, will introduce the film and show a pair of original Norwegian skis from the period.

Richard Polley, Rosefield Mills Project Co-ordinator, will give an update on the Mills. All tickets are £5 per person.

Victor Kossakovsky’s visually stunning film takes audiences on an extraordinary journey through the material that makes up our habitat: concrete, and its ancestor stone. He raises a fundamental question: how do we inhabit the world of tomorrow?

Architecton is an epic, intimate, and poetic meditation on architecture and how the design and construction of buildings from the ancient past reveal our destruction — and offer hope for survival and a way forward. Centring on a landscape project by the Italian architect Michele De Lucchi, Kossakovsky uses the perfect circle of stones in De Lucchi’s garden to reflect on the rise and fall of civilisations, capturing breathtaking imagery, from the temple ruins of Baalbek in Lebanon, dating back to AD 60 to the recent destruction of cities in Turkey following a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in early 2023.

Heralded by Le Monde in January 1976 as “the first masterpiece of the feminine in the history of the cinema”, Chantal Akerman’s landmark second feature, the mesmerising Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles follows the meticulous daily routine of its titular lead over the course of three days. Presented at the Directors' Fortnight at Cannes in 1975, the film brought the then 24-year-old Akerman international recognition. A cornerstone of feminist cinema, Chantal Akerman’s cinematically radical film challenged the status quo when it was originally released and continues to do so today.
