Where Hands Touch

A rites of passage story of a bi-racial teen struggling for survival in Nazi Germany.

Details

Where Hands Touch is a powerful coming-of-age film set in Nazi Germany. The movie follows the harrowing journey of Leyna, a bi-racial teenager fighting for her life against a backdrop of hatred and oppression. As Leyna's world becomes increasingly dangerous, she forms an unexpected connection with Lutz, a young German soldier. Their forbidden love forces them to confront the reality of their circumstances and the overwhelming prejudice surrounding them.

This poignant drama explores themes of identity, survival, and love amidst the horrors of World War II. It delves deep into Leyna's personal struggles as she navigates the complexities of her mixed heritage and the societal prejudices that threaten to tear her apart. Her resilience and determination to live authentically make her a compelling and relatable protagonist.

Where Hands Touch is a visually stunning film that sensitively captures the emotional turmoil of its characters. The performances are outstanding, particularly Amandla Stenberg as Leyna, who delivers a powerful portrayal of a young girl forced to grow up too quickly. George MacKay also shines as Lutz, providing a nuanced portrayal of a conflicted individual torn between loyalty and love.

Directed by Amma Asante, the film offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on a lesser-known aspect of history. Where Hands Touch is a gripping and emotional journey that will leave viewers both moved and enlightened.
