Left to fend for themselves after their SS officer father and mother, a staunch Nazi believer, are interred by the victorious Allies at the end of World War II, five German children undertake a harrowing journey that exposes them to the reality and consequences of their parents' actions. Led by the eldest sibling, 14-year old Lore (striking newcomer Saskia Rosendahl), they set out on a harrowing journey across a devastated country to reach their grandmother in the north. After meeting the charismatic Thomas, a mysterious young refugee, Lore soon finds her world shattered by feelings of both hatred and desire as she must learn to trust the one person she has always been taught to hate in order to survive. Lush cinematography and an evocative, haunting mood infuse this unconventional take on the Holocaust legacy with unforgettable impact. (c) Music Box

Review For Movie Lore
The young principals here, Malina and especially Rosendahl, are superb at conveying that premature hardening, their elastic minds pummelled by inelastic forces.
Rick Groen-Globe and Mail The sins of the Fatherland send a German teenage girl and her Nazi-connected family on the run in Australian director Cate Shortland's vividly rendered and sensual drama Lore.
Linda Barnard-Toronto Star It's a harrowing walk through the heart of darkness.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune With a child's perspective on war, "Lore" deserves comparisons with "Empire of the Sun" and "Hope and Glory," and with a feisty female protagonist it stands virtually alone.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch Saskia Rosendahl gives an impressively poised performance as the beautiful teenager, whose determination to protect her remaining family coincides with her growing revulsion toward her parents.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader "Lore" is not a pretty story, but it is a good and sadly believable one.
Tom Long-Detroit News We see no fighting and no high-level participants -- just ordinary people before a backdrop of natural beauty and manmade horror.
Chris Knight-National Post With an eye for images that are both lush and foreboding, Cate Shortland dives confidently into a moral minefield and doesn't care about defusing the situation.
Radheyan Simonpillai-NOW Toronto One could have made a much more didactic film with the same story - German girl learns Jews aren't so bad after all! - but Shortland is after something much more elliptical here.
Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI) Brings a distinctive perspective to familiar themes...
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) Saskia Rosendahl succeeds in a demanding role set amidst a bleak post-war landscape.
John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) As hard as it is to watch at times, it's even harder to stop watching Shortland's compelling, well-woven tale of a girl on a dual journey.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune With its leisurely pace and lengthy run time, Lore will make those expecting a quick and easy indictment of the entire postwar world unhappy.
Bill Gibron-PopMatters Think "Little Red Riding Hood" meets The Road.
Rick Kisonak-Film Threat Unflinching but thoroughly engrossing, the film provides a rarely depicted look at the Holocaust's other innocent victims. Beautiful cinematography by Adam Arkapaw.
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest Proves that there is always room for another [World War II] story if it can be presented in an original and unexpected fashion.
Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly Texture and detail embellish a provocative story
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit Child of Nazi parents faces an uncertain future
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit [Director Cate] Shortland directs with an almost hypnotic focus, favoring Lore's immediate experience over the big picture.
Sean Axmaker-Seattle Weekly Rosendahl's performance is raw and compelling, as Lore fights for her siblings' survival and grows up in a hurry.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune Lore and her siblings make a harrowing journey across Germany
Les Wright-culturevulture.net Worthwhile, but so subtle that it's frustrating.
Roger Moore-Movie Nation The Australian-German co-production takes an unconventional tale and turns it into a challenging, visually stunning and emotionally turbulent film experience.
T'Cha Dunlevy-Montreal Gazette Over the river and through the woods, to Grandmother's house we go. Except this ain't no fairy tale... unless it is, perhaps, a hint of the beginnings of a new mythology of ... scary childhood and even scarier adolescence...
