As Lore, a teenage girl, leads her four younger siblings across war-torn Germany in 1945, they embark on a dangerous journey to find safety and reach their grandmother's house as their parents, high-ranking Nazi party members, flee the advancing Allies. Amidst the chaos and destruction of post-war Germany, Lore encounters Thomas, a young Jewish refugee, who survived the Holocaust. Initially harboring deep resentment and prejudice towards Thomas due to the Nazi indoctrination she has grown up with, Lore's fragile reality is shattered as she discovers her parents' true allegiance and the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime.

With their parents gone, Lore and her siblings struggle to survive as food becomes scarce, and they face constant threats from both the collapsing German authorities and the occupying Allied forces. Thomas, who has his own dark secrets, offers to help them navigate the treacherous landscape to reach their grandmother's house, which they hope will still be a safe haven.

Reluctantly, Lore accepts Thomas' assistance, as she realizes that her survival and that of her siblings depend on her willingness to trust someone she does not know and confront the deep-seated prejudices she has been raised with. As they journey together, Lore and Thomas develop a complex and unexpected bond, leading Lore to question her ingrained beliefs and confront the darkness within herself.

As they encounter various challenges and dangers along the way, Lore's perspective slowly transforms. She witnesses the atrocities committed by her own people towards innocents, including Thomas' people and fellow refugees. Her journey becomes not only physical but also an emotional and moral one, as she grapples with her own guilt and the realization that her parents' beliefs were deeply flawed.

Throughout the film, Lore battles with conflicting emotions of both hatred and desire towards Thomas, simultaneously fighting against her growing love for him and her previous indoctrinated hatred towards Jewish people. The complexities of their relationship highlight the struggle between trust and suspicion, love and hate, as they navigate a broken and divided post-war Germany.

Ultimately, Lore and her siblings must come to terms with the truth about their parents, confront their own prejudices, and find a way to rebuild their shattered lives in a world marked by darkness and desperation. The film explores not only the physical devastation caused by WWII but also the profound emotional and moral impact it had on the lives of ordinary people, who were forced to confront their own complicity in the horrors of war.
