What is Rose about?
In the aftermath of the Thirty Years' War, a soldier named Rose arrives in a remote Protestant village claiming to be the rightful heir to a long-abandoned estate. Shot in stark black and white, the film follows Rose's careful, high-stakes performance of masculinity as she tries to secure land, standing, and safety in a community quick to suspect outsiders — all while hiding the truth of who she is.

Critic Reviews
Rose Review: Sandra Hüller Is Extraordinary in a Nearly Flawless Period Drama
★★★★½
Markus Schleinzer's black-and-white Thirty Years' War drama is a masterclass in control, led by a career-best performance from Sandra Hüller.
Austere, immaculate, quietly devastating.
