Good film but the filming was adequate, some times shots were too tight, story was interesting good story line, but I thought it could have been edited down a bit.. Dragged on in spots
Haunting and beautifully shot

a truly different view of WW2 survivors. we really think of the non-Jewish German children and their experiences. The cinematography was intriguing. I predict the male and female lead will become well-known from this movie. The style of the movie reminds me of my fave foreign film "After the Wedding"
Top Notch Story, Acting and Cinematography

Very interesting and sobering story line with great acting and cinematography. Story told from viewpoint and experiences of the children of an upper class Nazi family left on their own in the days following the fall of the 3rd Reich (late 1945). Made me wonder if the scars left with these children in the aftermath of WWII were any different than those felt by their parent's generation following WWI.

Boring art flick. Took too long with arcane shots of people at weird angles. Lots of unexplained behavior. I give it a 4 for subject matter only.
Beautiful and haunting

Very good...really enjoyed it. Subtitles were easy and filmography was at times stunning, abstract, and beautiful. As some have said, it gives a unique story about the fall of Germany, and how it affected a real life family of that time. The realization of the horrible Jewish genocide that was occuring at that time was unknown to most Germans and when it was exposed, many could not accept it. The hardship of those left behind to survive is also portrayed.
Terrific film!

I watched this movie twice because It was that good! A young child's mind is formed and fashioned by parent's, and when parent's are deceived this deception trickles down to the young impressional minds that are looking up to them. I do love this based on a true story of a 14 year old girl, who in real life was really 12 at the time and her courage to survive.
