    • Synopsis
    • LOST TRANSPORT is set in the last days of the Second World War and inspired by true events. In the ruins of war, three strong female protagonists have to break away from their survival strategies, overcome their resentment, anger and mistrust in order to see the others as human beings again and meet them with compassion. From a female perspective, Saskia Diesing (“Nena”) links real events about flight, deportation and occupation with the fictional characters in the film to create a feminist and deeply human story about cohesion and friendship. It stars Hanna van Vliet (“ANNE+”, “Toon”, “Quicksand”), Eugénie Anselin (“Bad Banks”) and Anna Bachmann (“Lost Ones”) in the lead roles.
