Director: Lena Einhorn

Nina's Journey is a feature film, but with an authentic narrator. We follow Nina and her family during six dramatic years, half of them spent in the Warsaw ghetto. The film tells the story of a young girl coming of age under extreme circumstances: Nina falls in love, goes to parties, and graduates high school - all in the Warsaw ghetto. One could say that, in these horrid times, she is almost living the life of a normal teenager. If it wasn't for the fact that all those around her are vanishing, one by one. Nina's Journey is shot in Warsaw, with Polish actors. But it is narrated by the elderly Nina Einhorn herself.

Ninas resa (2005)

The film title means "Ninas Journey" and tells the story of Ninas life from 1937 an onward. From the start of the film, you are caught by the story told partly in dramatized form played by excellent polish actors, partly with Nina telling her story in person, interviewed by her daughter Lena Einhorn, the films creator. The story is told calmly, but precisely because of that, so much more engaging, as Ninas experiences unfold before our eyes. Her close-knit large extended family, and her immediate family consisting of the formidable Russian-born mother, the more quiet father, her beloved brother Rudek and the young Nina. How many will perish through the following horrors of the war? The part of the story of life in the Warsaw Jewish ghetto especially really gets to you. It's a wonderful film that I'd recommend to anyone.

Ninas resa (2005)

A low-key but powerful drama about a Jewish woman’s odyssey from the WWII Warsaw ghetto to a life in Sweden, “Nina’s Journey” is a good example of what can be achieved when a tight budget is combined with sharp filmmaking and a story that aches to be told. Locally, pic received positive reviews on its December release and copped best film and screenplay honors at the Golden Bugs, local film awards. Foreign buyers searching for classy arthouse product should give this a look.

Ninas resa (2005)

Film is based on the real-life story of writer-director Lena Einhorn’s mother, Nina Rajmic, who lived in Warsaw. When war broke out and the Nazis invaded, the family was moved to an apartment in the ghetto and persecuted. Though their parents died, Nina and her brother Rudolf survived the war.

Nina met young student Jerzy Einhorn and moved with him to Sweden, where they both became well-known physicians. Jerzy was one of Sweden’s most respected cancer doctors, though ironically both he and Nina died of cancer early this century.

Before Nina died, helmer Lena interviewed her mother on camera. This gripping interview, with the old woman quietly talking in Swedish about the horrors of wartime Poland, threads through the movie as a voiceover to the action, and supplemented with comments from Lena. B&W stills and newsreel footage are also used.

Cast of well-known Polish actors is headed by Agnieszka Grochowska who, as Nina, is in almost every scene. Her open, vulnerable face makes the horrors of war come alive.

Despite being shot on DV and a low budget, pic manages never to look it. There are several convincingly staged mass scenes, and Einhorn takes full advantage of being able to shoot on location.

Pic recently won bet film and best screenplay in Sweden’s local film awards, the Golden Bugs.
