1h 49m Drama 2013

AroView: A satisfyingly ambitious and haunting drama from the Australian dir. of SOMERSAULT, set in Europe in the aftermath of WWII.

Following the arrest of their Nazi parents, a band of siblings undertake a perilous journey through the dark woods led by their stoic teenage sister, whose ideologies are tested as they encounter death, deprivation and a young Jewish refugee upon the road.

Eschewing simplistic moral or political viewpoints, the film offers a unique perspective on the nature of collusion and grapples with the mindset of a nation through the eyes of the generation that would lead Germany out from the yolk of fascism and into an uncertain future.

★★★★ “Overflowing with poetry” - Xan Brooks, The Guardian

“A strange sort of coming-of-age, undertaken during one of history’s darkest periods by a girl with a dawning understanding of events who’s still too young to be guilty.” ~Mark Adams, Hollywood Reporter
