Lore

Synopsis

Spring 1945. As the German front collapses, the Allied forces take control of Hitler’s country. With her Nazi parents imprisoned, 14-year-old Lore is left alone in charge of her four young siblings. The only place they can go is their grandmother’s house, 900km north. Embarking on a journey across the devastated country, the children struggle to survive, slowly realizing the reality and consequences of their parents’ actions. When Thomas, a young Jewish refugee, offers his help, Lore has to learn to trust a person whom she had always been told was the enemy.
