Here’s what the distributor says about their film: “A Dutch matron establishes and, for several generations, oversees a close-knit, matriarchal community where feminism and liberalism thrive.
A dying elderly woman recalls returning to her Dutch hometown after World War II.”
This film received an Oscar™ for best foreign film.
Positive
…The film does not condemn the church, but instead condemns narrow-mindedness and corruption which undermine the true church, the spirit of people working and loving together with a sense of moral responsibility to one another. Antonia’s family does not exclude nor judge; it includes and offers nurturing and love. …“Antonia’s Line” strikes me as one of the most morally responsible films to come down the pike in a long, long time.
