    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.
