Yes, this film is probably one of the best love stories out there. Where should I start? These types of films that deal with WW2 tend to have similar pessimistic vibes (which I like), but this one has incredibly unique atmosphere towards the end,which DOES give you some sense of sadness BUT at the same time, you feel this hopeness and positivities. I really like the fact that the story is based on the actual story during the time between the two women and I didn't know that until I saw the ending so I wasn't expecting this beautiful story did actually happen.I am not sure if the part at the nursing home where Lilly and IIsa see each other again actually happened or not, but regardless, I appreciate the part in the film and how it ended.Also I liked the last scene that goes back to the past where the ladies are partying . This part gives us the message that nothing stays the same and you must live now at the very moment, this leaves us a really good sense of hope after all.Great work.

The Plot.Berlin 1943/44 ("The Battle of Berlin"). Felice, an intelligent and courageous Jewish woman who lives under a false name, belongs to an underground organization. Lilly, a devoted mother of four, though an occasional unfaithful wife, is desperate for love. An unusual and passionate love between them blossoms despite the danger of persecution and nightly bombing raids. The Gestapo is on Felice's trail. Her friends flee, she decides to sit out the war with Lilly.OMG! Do yourself a favor and scan any movie that has some sort of gay theme. What you will find is a ridiculously high rating because the gay agenda is at work.I'm here to tell you this movie stinks to high heaven.It is simply not worth your time in the slightest. Ten minutes in you'll be bored out of your mind.When will the madness stop?

I have seen this movie and thought it was a wonderful movie, I have never seen anything like it. I was disappointed in the plot description, I feel it was lacking in what the movie was really about. If truth be told the movie was about a group of Lesbian Jews who held on to each other during the time of the Holacast. Although one of the women was a married woman with children could only make her bi-sexual at the most. I believe she only found out she was a lesbian later on in life when she met the love of her life. BTW, I found this movie at a LGBT center where I volunteer, and yes, I am a Lesbian and proud of it. As a piece of history I also find it to be well done. Good movie!

Set in World War II Germany and it deals with a love affair of a Jewish underground lady with a wife of a German officer (not a Nazi officer as other summaries seem to suggest). Excellent acting, very moving story. Very realistic love scenes. Especially the first love encounter of the heroins of the movie. This is a movie I ranked highest in my list together with Onibaba, a Japanese film. My wife is not that big on Onibaba but Aimee and Jaguar made a big impression on her. We are circulating the film amongst our friends. It is a gem. I small drawback is fast changing subtitles.
