About
Lore

The compelling and emotionally harrowing tale of a parent-less German family on the run at the end of WW2. Shortland goes in strong and tackles the subject of an irreparable broken psyche as told through the eyes of a 15 year old, imbuing it with superb performances and wonderfully tactile imagery. My only small gripe was the repetitive score. A perfect example of how to tell a big story on a low-budget. 4.5 stars
