La Maison De Nina


La Maison De Nina - DVD (2004)

I almost didn't get to watch this dvd, as I had left it til last, but the weather conspired against me and Bones didn't get good reception tonight, so it was easier to pop the DVD on then watch old stuff on the DVR.

Set at the end of the war, Nina runs a home for Jewish orphans outside Paris, who live a quiet life in the leafy grounds of a large home. Joined by a group of boys who have been liberated from the concentration camps, their lives are disrupted by the unruly and disturbed children. Helping them to settle in, and find the fate of their families provide many challenges.

4/5 for this very moving story. I sooo wish that TV would play quality dramas like this instead of Bones, CSI and NCIS rubbish.
